I tried to get sample fares from continental site and it only offers first class fares for Jan-Apr that I see. Strange...

I just checked on the Continental site and they have economy seats available. The fare HAS gone up, though, since we booked last week. It's now an additional $200 per ticket for our requested dates.

I checked the Continental flights out of MCI and the price is very high. I'm thinking of AA to Cur or Aruba and then over to Bon. I can save $165 a ticket into Cur. I'm assuming even with the price of Divi Divi, it will still be cheaper. Any suggestions?

I checked their pricing yesterday Boston - Bonaire. over $1,000 PP for 2/06. And it would take us about 21 hours to get there. Sure hope a direct flight starts out of the east coast. Waiting a little longer... will most likley fly AA

Just checked on the Continental website for May 2006 and round trip for one Houston to Bonaire is $496, the same shows on Expedia and Travelocity. For those of us in Texas that is a good price. We paid over $700 each last year, Hope each of you can find something that is good for you. The Continental route is going to be the best for us. PBD is setting in bad! Andy

Andy & Dave that is a great price. I just checked Travelocity for Feb 17 - Feb 25 and the Continental price is $2524 for one!!! Trying to get a family there on this price is way out of reach.

SJ, I just checked and for economy class it is $1489 pp on Continental and Expedia. Were you checking for 1st class? February is also high season and most of the airlines charge more during that time, also the resorts charge more. That is why we go in sometime from May thru August everything is less expensive and we get more for our money. Hopefully Continental won't go up or at least not to much before May/June of 2006. Hope you find a good price on airfare and get to go to Bonaire.
Andy

I just checked IAH - BON roundtrip for the dates Jan 20-28, price through Travelocity is $496.65, via Continental, including taxes and fees. When checking for February, the rates were similar to those mentioned earlier in this thread.
