Earlier this week my wife and I made arrangements to visit Bonaire next February. While talking with ALM about flights, we were told that as of June 1, 2000 ALM is ending its twice weekly flights from Atlanta. Had not heard about this before and just wanted to let people know about this.

Maybe I can use this as an excuse to extend our trip, no plane.(only wishful thinking).

It is not likely that Air Jamaica will add the second flight, at least not in the near future. The Delta to Aruba and connececing to Air Aruba or Air ALM is also a possibility...

Unfortunately, at least according to the Delta flight calendar I picked up on my DC to Atlanta flight a week ago, as of May 1st, Delta is dropping from daily flights Atlanta/Aruba to just one flight a day on Saturday and Sunday, which severely limits the usefulness of using the Delta connection via Aruba (that, plus the schedule 5 hour layover in Aruba, last time I checked...)

I cancelled the rented car(that's how we get to & from the airport) and talked to Interval. They assured me that on Monday they will have my rerouted plans, said there was plenty of time,not to worry. Let's see were this goes.

Leaving in 2 days and using ALM. Booked with them a few months ago because we didn't want the late pm flight. Surprize,surprize our 1:00 pm flight got cancelled and they put us on the 6:00 pm flight, arriving at 11:30pm.So much for the planning. Now we lose a day and need to change all our plans with hotel and car rentals.

We're leaving in less than 2 wks and I have been on the phone everyday with ALM. Everyone there is so very helpful but we still don't have new flights home confirmed, so tomorrow when I call they are supposed to get us something.

Good luck,Lorraine! Hey, Miami is not THAT bad. At least you can throw back a couple of the little "cafe cubano" caffeine zingers that are sold throughout the airport. Now THAT'S coffee with a kick!

It's not Maimi, but the stop in Atanta that I'm trying to avoid. But, oh well, "Getting there, as I say, is part of the adventure". less the 2 wks!
