    Fly United from Houston to Curacao

    Anyone here have experience flying United to Curacao with an overnight in Panama City? I am planning a trip next year and looking at air options. The easiest and quickest option is American through Miami with travel time each way around 7-8 hours. But Houston is a United town and most people...

    Latest entry/exit details

    We have a group coming next weekend and I'm trying to find some info for them. First, I know how to look up official tourism and state department policies so don't think I haven't done that. Sometimes those policies can lag what is happening on the ground and I'm looking for recent firsthand...

    Burgers & Beers at Henderson Heights, June 22

    It's time for another social outing. Henderson Heights offers a full bar selection and claims to have the "best burger in town" and I intend to investigate that! They are also dog-friendly. Here is what they have to say about themselves: Henderson Heights is a locally owned neighborhood bar...

    Navigating travel forums

    How do you find it irrelevant to Cozumel when it affects 90% of Cozumel tourists? That January re-entry requirement was discussed in many threads in this forum and no one had an issue with that. This is a significant modification of that re-entry requirement. It reduces the three day pre-flight...

    New COVID travel requirements

    Looks like they are ratching up the pressure on the unvaccinated. Starting in November "unvaccinated Americans will have to test within one day of departure and be required to test again after their arrival." And the "CDC will also require airlines to collect information for each U.S.-bound...

    Poll - Will this partial closure of marine park affect your future plans to visit Cozumel?

    I created this poll on my dive club's forums and thought it would be interesting to do so here as well. Please discuss your answers. I know there is an active discussion thread already but let's try to narrow the discussion here to the poll question and not about identifying causes and...

    GoPro battery tester

    I have a 3-battery charger and total of 5 batteries for my Hero6. Invariably, I end up with batteries in my camera case and I do not know if they are depleted or charged. Especially when it has been weeks since I last used the camera. There are plenty of battery testers for more conventional...

    Swivel for Fusion 52x

    So my typical config is 40" hose with 90-degree swivel, both second stages. My new 52x has a swivel but hose is into the side. While Mares sells a swivel, it looks to me like the hose is at least 1-1.2" into the VAD switch. It looks to me like I'd need a 2" fitting or hose to extend past the...

    Honduran Immigration Pre-Registration

    What's the latest word on this? Seems a few years ago it was changing back and forth, from being in use or not in use, from helping avoid lines to making no difference at all. Haven't heard anything recently. http://prechequeo.inm.gob.hn/

    Tablet for lightweight video clipping and viewing

    First let me say I'm not expecting to do serious video editing on a tablet. I'd like something to take on trips that would be smaller and lighter than my laptop. I just want to be able to view my underwater videos at the end of the day, and if possible, losslessly clip them to get rid of the...
