Ok Guys (Jake, Michael, Marc and other lucky residents of Bonaire)...those of us from up north want to hear the status of BonaireExel. The 7th, 8th and 9th have passed. What is the latest forecast?

tks

Dang if I know... However, in somewhat related news I did hear that the Green (UPB) party got 6 seats in the island council as a result of Friday's election, and the Red (PDC) got 3 seats. That means no coalition needed for the next 4 years, and also that the current party in charge will continue its "rule", which probably does bode well for BonairExel and similar ventures.

Also, last Wednesday, the 90 seat jet (I think) for BonairExel landed at the airport en route from Europe, and I would assume is now waiting for deployment.

There is currently one ATR at Flamingo and one Embrear. There's also another jet, a little bit bigger than the Embrear, parked to the side but I don't know if that has anything to do with BonairExel; it has no markings at all and may be private.
I also noticed that the office which was apparantly destined for Royal Aruba Airlines is now being refitted... maybe for BE?

But I believe the permits have still not been handed over yet...
