Hi, I'm traveling to Bonaire via Curacao on Air Jamaica. The flight is scheduled to get in on a Tuesday at 3:10 and I am curious which flight from Curacao I should book. The options seem to be the 3:30 divi flight if I'm insane, the 4:15 DAE flight for $57, the 4:45 insel air flight for $71 or the 5:00 divi flight for $55.

Any recommendation on which connection makes the most sense, I would like to get in as early as I can but I don't want to miss a flight.

Thanks,
Avi

Divi Divi do not even look at those other airlines. Pay more if you have to, Divi Divi is worlds better than DAE. I'd try for the 3:30 your plane might be early and Curacao is a fairly easy airport to get through. Also knowing Divi Divi they might have a person escort you through. Worse that could happen is you take the 5:00 and have a couple of Polars/Brights in Curacao.

Cecil,
We'll be doing the same thing in Feb. How would 3:30 be possible, don't you have to clear immigration and customs in Curacao? I haven't booked yet, as Divi won't take a Feb reservation until Sept.

We have done the divi divi 3:30 flight from curacao to bonaire several times. every time we had a tight connection time and divi divi was waiting for us-they literally walked us through customs and immigration. curacao is a small airport and its very easy and quick to get through. divi divi is a wonderful, small airline. My wife got to sit in the co-pilots seat each time and take pictures. we have always had great experiences with them

I emailed Divi Divi and asked which flight they would recommend and they suggested the 5:00 - I'll probably book that and try to make the 3:30 if there is room.

Avi, that sounds like the best suggestion. What Divi Divi told me is that the first and last flight of the day (so the 5pm) book full quickly and there might not be room to get on it if you miss the earlier flight. But... if you make it through customs quickly (and it can happen in Curacao) there might be room on the earlier flight. Good luck... Divi Divi is the BEST!!

Avi,

By the way, welcome to Bonaire Talk.

I too vote for Divi. They are wonderful people in an industry barren of good customer service skills.
