Hour Wait at Airport-Arrival

[mjc12771]

So I'm still on the fence about this. We leave early (545am) in the morning and arrive at MBJ at 1230 and will have probably eaten very little during this time. If we book club Mobay we will have food and drink available but if we wait at one of the bars can you order food?

Mjc...at the airport you can get Tastee (I think it's the Tastee company) patties and other food options right next door to the Groovy Grouper. Or, if you're not ready to acclimate to the heat yet...you can visit Island Grill which is located in the departure area and offers AC, many decent food options & more affordable beer.

IF you arrive during ''lunch time'' for airport employees,
you can find/get good GOOOOOD food and non-alcoholic drinks
at the parking lot
across the road
from the arrival and departure entrances

Great recommendations. One fact based caution. Met a couple on the cliffs last year who were long time visitors, they too were arriving early and waiting for friends on a flight landing after theirs. They met their driver, loaded the van, then went back into the airport to meet their friends. While they along with their driver were chatting it up inside the van in broad daylight was riffled of not only all their luggage and carry ons, but also of their drivers personal belongings. I heard this story before I met them and brought them some goodies to ease their transition as they were still trying to arrange a trip to Sav to shop for replacement luggage and clothes. The police did come and did review video, but nothing I am not aware of anything being recovered. Very unfortunate and I would never of thought the small parking lot adjacent the circle at the airport would be a problem, but common sense says don't leave your stuff.

ummmmmmmmm

now THAT's **interesting**
....they were allowed to go BACK INTO the airport THRU the ''Arrival''' door...???..

''things'' must have changed, 'cause when i tried doing THAT, i wasn't allowed to re-enter that door [after exiting].... '''security protocol'' was the reason given

Reminded me of song lyrics..."Heard it from a friend who, heard it from a friend who, heard it from another you been messing around."

This is one of the reasons the airport parking lot should be used. Although not free, there is some security.

I am also concerned that a driver would leave a loaded vehicle there. It is a good walk back to the airport, and no way to keep an eye on the van. Something doesn't make sense here.
