This afternoon 'Curaçao' has signed the last permit needed for BonairExel to start up her commercial flights. As soon as BE has the schedule fixed and entered in certain flight systems (don't ask me for details ), they should be able to take off!

As far as I've heard, today Bonairexel indeed has received their AOC. The leader of the green party Booi was on the local radio and has given the good news, and BE will be off the blocks soon just as Kitty has explained above.

AOC is the Certificate which you need to be Operational in the Air.

No Mention of Miami anywhere in this release!

It was said Miami and Caracas will come later - permits couldn't be requested as long as the local permits were not issued.

Does anyone know how to contact them to arrange a flight in October?

A local travel agent tells me that the flights have appeared in her airline booking computer but as of last Friday they did not have prices. Although she expected prices this past Monday.

Prices were being finalized today, I think. As soon as we have them we'll post them.
