Princess Juliana International Airport (PJIA) will be taking part in the ‘SMART 2026’ trade fair, from 22 to 26 June, with a new space called the ‘Hub Lounge’, designed to showcase its strategies and strengthen its ties with airlines and tourism partners.
Organised by the St. Maarten Hospitality & Trade Association and its partners, SMART is a key event in Caribbean tourism, bringing together numerous professionals and economic sectors. Among the new features for the 2026 edition are a space for small hotels, the return of the “Green Room” dedicated to NGOs, and more exhibition space. Already, 79% of the stands have been booked, confirming the event’s growing success.
