I'm surprised you didn't try camping out at the Sunset Beach Bar for the views😂 I'm not a plane enthusiast at all, just love watching you two enjoy yourselves.
Skiathos' airport beach in Greece sees Maho Beach and says "Finally, a worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary". Another neat fact about St. Maarten is that it has the world's shortest commercial international flight which is between there and the British island of Anguilla (in fact you can see a flight coming from Anguilla at 1:45). The flight takes just 10 minutes (your St Maarten-St Barth's flight takes 15 minutes). Unlike the neighboring St. Martin, Anguilla is pretty laid back and this is because of it being sparsely populated and that it didn't make the decision to develop tourism until the 1980s. They actually used to be its own republic for a short time in the 1960s, and this is why it has three dolphins on its flag (as that was on the flag of the republic). Basically, the UK combined them with St. Kitts, they were unhappy as they preferred to be their own colony, they kicked out the St. Kitts police, held a referendum to leave St. Kitts that neither the UK nor St. Kitts recognized, held another referendum in favor of being a republic, then the UK sent a contingent of 331 2nd Battalion, The Parachute Regiment, plus 30 London Metropolitan Police officers. While St Kitts got their independence, Anguilla has remained British.
Omg, what a small world, finding your channel through Dennis Bunnik’s, feeling associated with travel being a flight attendant myself, having my love living in Australia , where I will end up in the near future ,I come across you guys going to my islands and filmed it🎉❤. I am a born Saba girl, lived between there and St Maarten until my teenage years,I cried seeing you film my beautiful islands. Especially Saba. I even saw some familiar faces also. Like your taxi driver . I mean come on we all know each other there 😂. Thank you for this video 🙏
Ah yes, an American flying from a part of the Netherlands to a French island, at an airport named after a Swedish king...Mr. Worldwide. Being able to sit right next to the pilot to get a front-row seat of the action of this one-of-a-kind flight experience is the equivalence of winning Powerball. JEALOUS! St. Barth's history is quite interesting! The island was Swedish from 1784 to 1878! France gave Sweden the island in exchange for French trading rights in Gothenburg. With that, the Swedish West India Company was established, but the colony wasn't quite successful. The islanders faced a feverish epidemic that led to the deaths of 300 people in 1840, as well as a severe drought in 1850. Sweden no longer saw the colony as viable and attempted to give it to the US in the late 1860s. They even tried giving it to ITALY, but Sweden stopped talks with Italy after realizing Italy wanted to use it as a penal colony. So when Oscar II became King in 1872, he approached France about returning the island, which they agreed to in August 1877, and the French officially reoccupied it in March 1878.
How cool that you were about to pay cash and get 2 seats on a charter! Saint Maarten is definitely on my bucket list. I've always washed to visit the beach at the end of the runway! Thx for the great video as always!
First time I went to St Maarten was in 2003. Back then the Maho beach bar was a shack doing $2 Carib’s and you had 747’s screaming in over the beach. It was heaven. Then the cruise ships turned up… and well The rest is history.
in 2015 I visited St.Marteen and saw a Boeing 747 land at st.Maarten. The flight no longer runs because because of how close to the end of the runway stopped. The flight was on klm and went from Amsterdam to st .Marteen.
I went to Saba recently as well. That other BN Islander (PJ-WEB, another Windward Express aircraft) you can see at 10:30 unfortunately suffered some damage to its port side main gear after a presumably hard landing. It apparently encountered wind shear and is now temporarily stranded. Good job to your Winair air pilots for landing in that tailwind!
Well that was some good "check your shorts" kind of flying....LOL One of these days, I'll make it over that way. To answer Suzanne's questions at the end, Yes, You are GOOD!
Those are my little twin brothers name, Ryan and Bryan. .. ❤️ Also, awesome video! We visited Maho Beach via cruise ship back in 2017 and watching those planes land and take off was so beautiful!
On the subject of Britten Norman Islanders, one day I hope to see Jeb fly with FIGAS, the only national airline with just that plane in their fleet. They're based at Stanley, but they fly to dozens of places all over the Falkland Islands, including the international airport at Mount Pleasant.
Jeb, thanks so much for showcasing a couple of the small islands that we have not been to before! Exciting and beautiful and PLANES!! Now, it’s time for us to follow your tracks on this adventure! Take care.
Love your videos! I didn’t think I was an Avgeek, but I get excited when I now recognize, thanks to you, certain aircraft. 🙂 Most likely a channel you already know about, but speedtapefilms (cockpit casual) is another favorite channel. It’s incredibly interesting.
Every Saturday, I look for this guy’s new video, and every week, he somehow makes it better than the last. Good job Jeb!
agree 100 percent
He is not just “this guy” he is Jeb Brooks
But yes I do agree
OMG! I love Suzanne!! “You DO know that planes land INTO the wind?!?” She’s amazing!
Awesome video! I really appreciate the lengths (1312 feet) you go to get the best aviation footage.
I'm surprised you didn't try camping out at the Sunset Beach Bar for the views😂 I'm not a plane enthusiast at all, just love watching you two enjoy yourselves.
I definitely would have!

Such wise words from Mr Supreme Kim that I felt it coming inside me ❤

Wow that is crazy with the airports. Love the adventurous spirit in you and Suzanne. Keep up the good work.
The most colourful and complete video of St-Martin aviation hot-spots I have seen!
I am always excited to watch the Jeb brooks video of the week!! Cant wait to watch this one
Out of ALL the videos you’ve done, this is the one I’m most jealous of.
I always love visiting that beach.
Your videos are never disappointing. I hope you consider flying on Breeze Airways soon, because I’m anxious to hear your opinion about them.
How cool that you were about to pay cash and get 2 seats on a charter! Saint Maarten is definitely on my bucket list. I've always washed to visit the beach at the end of the runway! Thx for the great video as always!
I love plane spotting at Maho.
Love the thumb! Great job!!!
Feels good to be this early!!!!
15:48 That 727 is gorgeous!
Great video, Jeb! Your videos are first class regardless of which class you fly in!
Per usual, awesome video footage. I am sold! Saba here I come.
Fabulous video. One of your best and most interesting!
First Officer JB 🤩 Another awesome video!
The right seat?! That's awesome!!
First time I went to St Maarten was in 2003. Back then the Maho beach bar was a shack doing $2 Carib’s and you had 747’s screaming in over the beach. It was heaven. Then the cruise ships turned up… and well The rest is history.
This video is so fun! I always look forward to your video adventures. TY both.
Another great video Jeb thanks for sharing buddy
I love that you are able to travel to so many cool places!
I loved this video so much, Jeb!
You are the bar Jeb! Always enjoy the videos
Another really enjoyable video. Thank you for sharing!
I just got back from both SXM and SBH last week. Celebrating my 55th Birthday. What an incredible trip. 😎🌴✈️
That last flight was the best I have seen on your channel. Keep up the good work.
Awesome video as always 😊
I have been to St Maarten & St Barth's airports, exciting for sure..
Thanks for this vlog. Happy Easter. 🐇
Beautiful setting. Great video. Thank you.
I had to scrunch up my toes to help with that landing. Excellent work!!
Nice video!! Keep up the good work
in 2015 I visited St.Marteen and saw a Boeing 747 land at st.Maarten.
The flight no longer runs because because of how close to the end of the runway stopped. The flight was on klm and went from Amsterdam to st .Marteen.
Wake up babe, new Jeb video just dropped
This guys vids remind of something straight from the travel channel, voice over and all.
Fantastic video guys!😸
St. Maarten is fire! I've never been but want to go so bad. The Caribbean overall is a fun place to fly! Great vid and keep up the good work!
Fantastic video, guys.
I went to Saba recently as well. That other BN Islander (PJ-WEB, another Windward Express aircraft) you can see at 10:30 unfortunately suffered some damage to its port side main gear after a presumably hard landing.

OMG, you guys are so cute ❤ Loved the bloopers. Great video as always 😊
On my very top wishlist of airports to Visit (SBH). Fantastic footage!
I always wonder how many people on flights like these know how unique they are, and how many just need to get somewhere for work.
Great Video Jeb, Nice to see those take offs and landings.
BEAUTIFUL VIDEO !
Glad you got to visit Saba (I live here), but I’m from Sint Maarten. You both look familiar I might’ve seen you walking in the windward side.
Good to see the British plane represented here!
Fantastic footage!
Suzanne's Delta hat is on point!
St Maarten is gorgeous; glad you had fun there!
I think Saint Martin is where Captain Ron parallel parked Martin's Yacht in the movie Captain Ron if memory serves me right, great video.
From the lower part of the kingdom of the Netherlands thanks for the episode, Saba looked amazing, all the islands did. 😊
Well that was some good "check your shorts" kind of flying....LOL One of these days, I'll make it over that way.
To answer Suzanne's questions at the end, Yes, You are GOOD!
I’ve been following you for over two years now and this was by far my favorite video you have posted. Loved it!!!
Those are my little twin brothers name, Ryan and Bryan. .. ❤️
Also, awesome video! We visited Maho Beach via cruise ship back in 2017 and watching those planes land and take off was so beautiful!
I love Jeb's silly hat!
Watching some Netherlands footage from the Netherlands 👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome been waiting for this release! Great Job love the exposure for Saba!
TNCM, TJSJ, and TNCS are my absolute favorites in the Caribbean. I need to get back. You need to climb the mountain on Saba!!
Favorite Jeb Brooks vdo to date
My best friend went to med school on St. Martin. He loved Saba over the other islands because of the people and diving.
I think I missed this one unbelievable 😮
Love your videos and love planes ❤❤
Awesome video........no idea what camera you used in first part but was so clear and bright.
Well Jeb, looks like your RUclips career is really “taking off!”
Love the Delta hat❤
Great film, good job you have a Tech Expert with you!:D
That pizza looked amazing.......wish I could have grabbed a slice through the computer screen....
It was super delicious pizza. Thanks for watching!

Hello i love your videos
Amazing Video Jeb, one of the most amazing experiences in my life was to witness the Landing and departure of KLM 747 on Maho Beach in 2017.
Great video
Jeb, thanks so much for showcasing a couple of the small islands that we have not been to before! Exciting and beautiful and PLANES!! Now, it’s time for us to follow your tracks on this adventure! Take care.
Done that flight. So much fun
Great flight.
Love your videos: so much better with Mrs. B in them ! All good husbands know their role in life....
Amazing
“Mom can we have Swiss001?” “We have Swiss001 at home.” *Swiss001 at home*
Wow what an adventure!!! I had anxiety on the landing and take offs lol just amazing!
15:23 I am highly disappointed that Jeb didn't pull his trusty little tape measure, HAHA!
What a fascinating trip and an amazing video as always.
Please visit Skardu in Pakistan someday too.
Keep it up.
So much fun and scary
I like the hat. White reflects, good choice.
A few years back I flew in a Trilander from Bournemouth to Alderney and back....so amazing
Love your videos! I didn’t think I was an Avgeek, but I get excited when I now recognize, thanks to you, certain aircraft. 🙂
Most likely a channel you already know about, but speedtapefilms (cockpit casual) is another favorite channel. It’s incredibly interesting.
Underrated
very cool!
great research job, jeb and suzanne! thanks for risking your necks for our vicarious viewing pleasure
WOW!!!!
Fantastic video! Wonder why 2 GoPros were running in the Twin Otter. Is one of the pilots a youtuber too?
Locals pronounce SABA as (SAYBER) :).... awesome video....greetings from a aviation Spotter in St. Kitts and Nevis just a few miles away.
Every Sunday coffee … Jebs videos then church at 11 am
Thoroughly enjoyable glad you made it back to St Maarten. For $130 per person, that is just a pricey taxi ride.
Caribbean airlines
❤ St. Barth’s 😉👍🏻
