AJ doesn't go to Aruba, so this is probably true Delta.

John, I am not sure, I just checked Delta's web site and found tickets, same days, including taxes/fees for $394.42.

Thanks Sue, I got distracted for a bit and when I finished the post you had posted.

But the question for you Tom is ... were you just looking or will you be in Bonaire on those August dates??? If you are we will overlap a bit which would be fun! Sue

Sue, I was just looking for Cecil. Smack and I are heading back in October.

I don't know where you were looking Tom, but every time I looked on Delta it was >$600 to Aruba. I did find a flight on US Air/Scare for $368 which is probably what we'll do.

Hey Buddy, I went to http://www.delta.com/home/index.jsp typed in bos to aua leaving on the 13th returning on the 21st checked "deeply discounted" in the "cabin fare" box and presto there it was. Just did it again, same results.

I am green with envy :-) wishing I was going in October !!!! Tom, did you see Patty's email picture of the new baby (sorry - that is off topic of this thread) - what a doll, he looks so big!

Denise, Ayup and ayup.

OK, pulled the trigger. You know the airline tickets are just a little less than the room/diving/car rental. UFB. Lets hope that Houston/Continental connection happens.
|
By Cecil Berry (Supreme BonaireTalker - Post #4065) on Monday, June 13, 2005 - 3:00 pm: |
Oh Tom, I never did find those Delta prices you mentioned. One problem is we are returning on the 20th, the 21st may be cheaper.
|
By Tom Cousino (Extraordinary BonaireTalker - Post #1941) on Monday, June 13, 2005 - 3:02 pm: |
That is good Cecil, I believe there was a Sunday return involved to get the prices I found. I actually hope the Ft Lauderdale connection happens.

We are going in October, and have elected to fly AA from BOS thru Miami to Curacao - then get to Bonaire on Divi Divi. The AA rate was - I dunno, about $640 ea round trip. Divi Divi is another $40 per person each way, and of course an added airport tax, as we will formally "arrive" to Curacao, and then "depart" again instead of just passing through the transit lounge. We like the schedule, which has us leaving BOS at 0600 on a Saturday, arriving CUR at 1400. We booked the 1530 DiviDivi flight, by e-mail. We should be at Sorobon by Happy Hour! Going home, our AA flight off CUR is at mid-afternoon on a Sunday, so we will have time for one last Lac Bay reef snorkel in the morning before hopping DiviDivi at 1145 to CUR. This should assure making the checkin on time for AA. We arrive in Boston at about a million o'clock - well, after 2300 - which has us home in southern RI after 0100. Ew. With any luck, can have the next day off from work!

Sandy and Don, Welcome to Bonaire Talk!

By Cecil Berry (Supreme BonaireTalker - Post #4080) on Friday, June 17, 2005 - 1:12 pm: |
Welcome to the board, my tickets came in at $370 to Aruba and another $198 to Bonaire. We also get a few hours in Aruba coming and going. Not a bad route and much better than the AA schedule through San Juan.

Cecil, that total is incredible. I too do not care for the AA through San Juan connection. For some it works well, unfortunately out of BTV, U.S. Air/Scare is usually involved. I have had several trips where clients missed connections, in one case we overshot Puerto Rico completely. In the latter case we did get to visit St. Thomas for a night;-{)} On that particular trip, we discovered Bonaire Excel.
