Okay, I just checked the Trip Advisor web site for flights to Bonaire in Feruary 2010 and they came back with flights from St. Louis to BON for around $9000 RT.

For all you board pros out there, is there a diver travel agency recommendation that you can make??

I just went to Travelocity and searched St Louis to Bonaire for 2/6 through 2/13 and got $800 RT.

For $9000 he should have the entire plane to himself!

Yes, I was going to say, for that price, I SHOULD be able to sit in first class in a Puma track suit.  The other option would be my Elvis Las Vegas costume.....

check with Donna at Caradonna.  www.caradonna.com
She can check on airline prices for you and put together a package for around the same price you can do it. 

the other choice is to look at websites like:
www.sidestep.com
they search all the airlines.

We flew through Houston on Continental on the overnight flight on Friday night.  Worked great, arrived at resort in time for breakfast, mandatory dive briefing, and then first shore dive before lunch.  I like that.

When we did S'Pore and PNG we worked with Jane from Dream Weaver Travel. She was great to work with, very patient.

Good luck with the airfares. I booked a 1/29-2/6 trip back in August and it cost me $1200 R/T from Missoula MT on Delta.
Then changed  return to 2/10, but have to go BON to Curacao, Curacao to Miami, then Miami to Missoula-American.  Cost an extra $400.

ARRGGHH!!

Yea, i thought I made a mistake when I went to Trip Advisor for airfares for next March..  They did show a RT fair of $9000.  No joke...

I want to go but I've got to get airfare under about $800 to justify the expense.....
