New flight to bonaire!

[BDSC]

This is great news as I only live a couple of hours from Charlotte!

Insel Air to Offer Charlotte flight to Bonaire : Flights to Bonaire | BonairePros.com

The flight is actually just CLT-CUR, where one connects to existing Insel flights to BON.
And US Air does not yet have any easy online connections to this flight from elsewhere in the US.
But it's mildly good news regardless...

And what's even more funny is that the Insel website doesn't yet have Charlotte as a destination/origination point.
God help these 3rd-world airlines...

But wait, there's MORE!
They're flying a big plane (MD83) from CLT-CUR but a small 20-pax Embraer 110 from CUR-BON.
So guess what?
The flights from CUR-BON will sell out early and most folks wanting to connect straight through to BON will have to overnight in CUR coming & going!
Isn't that EXCITING!!!

I thought they announced this deal (codeshare or whatever in airline speak) over a year ago? And it was supposed to have 'seamless online booking' from the USelessAir page? ...Still waiting... Much as I detest the rush through ATL on Delta they have worked well.

You would think that they would have just had a non-stop from Charlotte straight to Bonaire. At the price point they are showing of about $500 rt, every seat would be full.

Why? Something like that would make sense
