Hey Everyone,

I need to gather some information on the CO contract air. If you live in Houston, then the fare I can get right now is $615 RT. If you don't live in Houston, then there is an add-on to that fare.

I need to know if we can get enough divers to continue to offer the CO contract or not. The way this contract is set up, if we don't fill all the spots on hold, then SD has to pay a penalty and also lose our deposit.

Please let us know how you plan to get to Bonaire!!

Me to..it was $665 RT which seemed like a decent rate in comparison to the contract rate.

I hope we have enough people for the contract rate. I will wait and see how it goes. I prefer to book through SD and get the discount.

Well I would "prefer" a private jet or a Windjammer cruise but that wasn't one of the choices :welcome:

The problem I'm running into is that "I can't get there from here." I live in Michigan and making a connection flight to where I can catch the Bonaire flight is additional $450-ish to my trip (plus a hotel stay for the night before). This is adding a noticeable sum on my vacation that I keep getting those second thoughts of getting into the salt water this dive season.

I've found a really good price on CO ($640 ish)...this would leave from GRR on Friday night and then return Saturday morning; email me at fingrabber@singledivers.com for more details
