Getting in

• Princess Juliana International Airport, Sint Maarten: This is the main international gateway, on the Dutch side. For Quartier d’Orléans, take a licensed taxi or pre-arranged transfer; allow roughly 35–60 minutes depending on traffic and about US$35–50 for a taxi, with luggage and late-hour supplements possible. A rental car collected here is usually the most practical choice for a stay in this district. Do not expect a direct, reliable airport bus to French Quarter.
• Grand Case–L’Espérance Airport, Saint-Martin: Useful only for regional arrivals, notably from nearby Caribbean islands. Quartier d’Orléans is comparatively close: a taxi is usually about 15–25 minutes and roughly €20–30, subject to time and baggage. Arrange one in advance for late arrivals; this is a small airport, not a transport hub.
