We are flying to Aruba on Friday, 1/6 arriving at 8pm, and connecting to Bonairexpress at 9pm. They just changed the flight from 10pm to 9pm. I have paper tickets in hand, but we are a party of 7. Are we too in trouble? I purchased the Aruba to Bonaire tickets from a travel agent on Bonaire (Bonaire Travel) and she told me it would be tight, but that someone in our group should go directly to their ticket counter once we land in Aruba and let them know the rest of the group is coming. I also thought about calling them directly the day prior to our travel and letting them know we are connecting from Houston on Continental so they would consider waiting for a party of 7 if we were late. Won't the airport in Aruba be fairly quiet that time of night?

What is the process in getting through Aruba? Is it you go through customs and immigration, let them know you are "in-transit", collect bags and then head to the connecting gate? Is it one terminal where international and interisland airlines are together?

Well, I decided to make a change and not chance the tight connection. We are coming in a day earlier and flying thru Newark instead of Houston into Aruba, so a nice 3 1/2 hour connection time in Aruba. Thanks for the advice.
