I am interested in any air fair deals to Bonaire from the USA. How much did you pay for the Miami to Bonaire or Houston to Bonaire, for what dates?

$495 seems to be the going rate with ALM. If you need connecting flights up and down the East coast Air Tran cannot be beat! Their hub is Atlanta and they post specials. Regular RDU to Atl. and PHF to Atl. are only $47.00

I have had good luck with www.previewtravel.com. I have bought tickets on-line from them a couple of times. The airfare from Boston to Bonaire was $507 when I checked yesterday. That was on United - the Miami to Bonaire flight was an ALM co-share with United and has a United flight number. This means that if ALM changes anything (like times or canceling a flight), you deal with United and it's their responsibility to get you to Bonaire.

If you can get to Atlanta, ALM runs airfare specials on Th to Th departures. You have to ask for it if you call ALM direct. The special fare is $299 and runs out quickly, but with advanced notice and planning you could get that. ALM also flies out of ATL on Sat and Sun, but that fare is usually in the $450 to $500's. OR, if you can get to San Juan cheaply, there are several daily flights out of San Juan on the DASH-8 service (2 engine prop, smaller, and it takes 2 hours, but really not bad! Done it 2 times now) and we paid $175 round trip SJU to CUR to BON. Good Luck!

Does anyone know if Air Jamaca is still planning flights into Bonaire? I remember reading about it in Portcall.

Air Jamaica's inaugural flight to Bonaire is still on target for Saturday June 26th, from Montego Bay, and this flight should be in all travel agent computer systems at this point. Plus, most Bonaire tour operators even have blocks of seats for this weekly flight (combined with feeders from most major U.S. cities).

Without a doubt Air Jamaica is flying to Bonaire.

I have had good luck flying from Balt to Atlanta and connecting with ALM. While ALM does not advertise or offer special fares, if you ask they sometimes have them.

We will be flying from Caracas to Bonaire and can't seem to find anything under $200 RT. That sounds high. Does anyone know of a better option (either cheaper flight or by ferry)?

From Baltimore or Philly try getting to Atlanta on Air Tran. They have great low fares. If you can get to Atlanta, ALM runs airfare specials on Th to Th departures. You have to ask for it if you call ALM direct. The special fare is $299 and runs out quickly, but with advanced notice and planning you could get that. ALM also flies out of ATL on Sat and Sun, but that fare is usually in the $450 to $500's.

Caracus, Venezuela, via Air ALM is not that expensive if you buy the ticket in Venezuela. The phone number there is 953-7086 or 953-6424. There is no Ferry Service and if there was, the trip is against the wind and not a bit pleasant.

Thanks for the reply Jake, looking into it, always looking to come back!

Jake is right, the Air Jamaica Twofer is only from Miami and Chicago. The current fare out of Miami is US$ 438,40, Chicago is US$ 604,40. The companion pays only the taxes which amount to about US$ 35,00.
