Looking at the Continental web site, I found that they have flights from Houston arriving on both Saturday and Sunday mornings. They also show departures from Bonaire to Houston on Saturday & Sunday mornings.

Yes, there is one flight(Houston)on Saturday and on Sunday from both Houston and Newark. I think this started in December but don't hold me to it.

Well oddly enough, it appears that CO has (quietly?) added a second weekly flight from IAH to BON.

We've a flight out of Houston on Friday, June 13th, returning through Houston on Sunday the 20th, giving us eight days in Bonaire rather than the usual one week.

I recall when booking tickets for Christmas 2007/New Year's 2008 that Continental had added a second saturday night houston flight starting in mid december because of the demand. At the time, it was announced that it would only be temporary. Sounds like they are going to start it back up again ...

we were seeing two continental planes at the airport on sunday mornings on our trip this past winter. we were told at that time that it was a seasonal addition....looks like they've extended it.

The Carib Inn website has a collection of what looks like the text from airline press releases regarding service expansions to Bonaire.

I flew the "extra" flight last December. I think that it is purely demand based.

From what I can tell, the additional IAH-BON flight isn't a regular thing. We just booked tickets for next November, and the only flight from Houston was the once weekly Friday red-eye.
