Attention first timers to Cozumel International Airport: Just thinking about my first time going thru the airport. Some helpful hints in getting thru. Don't let me paint too bad of a picture but.. there are some weird things.. like being hit up for time shares in the airport while waiting for luggage and before clearing customs. Watch out for signs of your hotel or free maps or free something, some bogus line to lure you in. If your a nice person (aren't we all) be prepared to say NO. Also you need to push the button and if the light turns green your allowed to proceed, if it turns red you get the complete check thru: luggage - body cavity search (maybe not). Also, have the forms filled out completly: the airline will provide these forms and you can fill them out on the plane. Have ID, Passport or Birth Certificate and other travel docs. If you are in doubt just follow the person infront of you and do like they are doing. It's a good time to remind everyone myself included that we are on caribbean time and things move a little slower. Don't worry, smile, be patient and enjoy.. See in Coz. Jay

Sonny, Gar and Michael I have you down for Thursday dives or Friday dives since you all are staying a bit longer. That way you can join in with the rest of the SDer's! Let me know which day you prefer????

Thursday is the sighseeing day with F-F gang and last major day of diving with S-S gang. Friday is fly day for F-F and maybe sight seeing day for S-S gang. So I have you all penciled in for Thursday. Let me know asap if this is correct! -ww

WW - if we told you the Nitrox and extra dive info in previous posts or in the survey, you picked the info up from there and I just need to pay you on Sunday?

Glad the night shore dive is Sunday, now I have a whole group to dive with. :lmao:

Thanks for all the hard work, don't know how you keep us all straight, add people at the last minute, etc. etc. :lmao:

Apparently I missed the boat on extra dives. Some of us can't view the site during the day and I don't stay up real late. I am sending money Pay Pal for nitrox for the 10 am and 2 pm dives.
