Anyone know if there is boat or air service between Caracas abd Bonaire??

Robert -

I do not think there is either. The most direct routing from Caracas would probably be via Aruba or Curacao.

This newsgroup is an excellent information source and if someone has more specifics and/or can correct my thinking, I'm sure they will post before long. Keep checking back.

From any direction, Bonaire is not the easiest place to get to!

Robert, Welcome to Bonaire Talk!

I just did a search on Travelocity and found a round trip fare of $476.00 Caracus (CCS) to Bonaire (BON). Flights listed were Aeropostal Flight 800 to Aruba and Ecoair Flight 2981. One way trip was listed as approxmately $186.00

You can get there from there.

There is a new airline that services BON/Caracas. Their office is across from Casablanca. Let me see if I can find the phone #. Also Transerv or something has a desk at the airport. I think the flights are via Valencia.

Ann -

Thank you for expanding not only Robert's, but also my knowledge. I had no idea about Transerv.

I would not be surprised if Robert is thinking about the AA non-stop DFW-Caracas and then connecting to BON. I'll be interested to see if that is feasible.

I will be in Caracas on Business and just thought that I have the weekend free and thought I would hop over, but boy it is not easy even though it is only a 30 min flight!
