My wife and I will be puddle-jumping from Aruba to Bonaire for a few days of diving in mid-November and I'm trying to figure out flights. I've read the many BonaireExel threads and it sounds like pretty terrible service with changable/undependable schedules, lost luggage and long layovers. Are there any alternatives? I take it Divi Divi only connects Curacao/Bonaire? Any input is much appreciated -Gordon

My impression of BE, based on 1 roundtrip Aruba-Bonaire in July, 04; is that they mostly go ontime. If you are on Aruba, I think you would be ok. Mostly, people have problems making BE's 3:30pm flight to Bonaire after arriving from the US on Delta, USAir, etc.

Thanks for the reassurance. We will be traveling on weekdays also so maybe we can make the hop uneventfully.

Thanks for the info Gregg. We will be catching the Delta 4:10 flight from Aruba back to the states and were planning on taking the 7am BE flight from Bonaire (yawn) to avoid unexpected delays, not that I particularly look forward to hanging around the Aruba airport if the BE flight is on time.
