we arrive in Aruba at 3:51 PM and would consider taking the Tiara Air flight directly to Bonaire that left at 7 PM. As a matter of fact, if DAE doesn't post a schedule going past 08January08 pretty soon we'll be very seriously thinking of using the service

Funny thing though Glen, that was what they said their target market was - North American tourists that have a hard time getting direct to Bonaire.

Interesting. Well, they seem to have at least two prospective customers already in the Bestwicks. :–)

I contacted Tiara Air. I need a flight Saturday night and you guessed it, there is none, we have to wait for Sunday morning OR . . . if DAE would only post their schedule beyond 8January08

In the past I have been successful by e-mailing DAE at either reservations@flydae.com or info@flydae.com and asking about their schedule. Based on past experience, DAE's flight schedule will likely change very little in January, but it is worth asking. Alternative is to call them at 599 (717) 0808. If calling from the States, dial 011 before dialing the rest of the numbers.

DAE's schedule for > Jan 08 is most likely the same as it is now. They are a commuter airline and business people rely on their schedule to be consistent. Don't worry. You can probably get tickets after you arrive...

thank you Dr Director and John P Waliq for your comments about DAE. I've contacted DAE by phone(on hold for 15 minutes + then I hung up) and consequently emailed them. The have promised me when the new schedule comes out they will notify me and my travel agent by email so we can make reservations. I know this sounds crazy but I do not want to spend the night in Aruba and fly to Bonaire the next morning!.

We also arrive at 3ish on a Sunday and would love to take a direct flight instead of stopping in Curacao. I have heard that Tiara is quite reputable. Does anyone know what this flight would cost and the start date?
