    Boeing 777 in CZM?

    Looks like KLM 689 was diverted from CUN to CZM. A 777 seems BIG for the runway at CZM. No? Somebody should get a video of that thing taking off. https://flightaware.com/live/flight/KLM689/history/20230127/0905Z/EHAM/MMCZ

    How about a daily (?) trip report while on vacation.....? So great to be back. It's been two years since our last trip and this is about our 6th time to Cozumel. Our 1st time to Coz (2007), our kids were little and stayed home with grandma. Now, they are all diving with us, and that's such a...

    Exchange rate, etc.

    Heading down to CZM on Saturday and could use an update or refresher on a few items.... - I think Mega ATMs had a good exchange rate for ATM withdraw. True? - Aldora gives 10% discount for paying cash for diving. That's a lot of $$$ to be walking around with. Ideas? - Isis Rental car still...

    Last minute trip plans - condo or villa rental?

    I booked flights today to see if we can't make a last-minute trip workout for 12/31/22 through 1/7/23. If anyone knows of a condo or villa available for that timeframe, let me know. I found two larger villas, but the price it $8k or more and that's too high for us. There are other homes for...

    Possible? Two different dive ops diving together

    Trying to coordinate a group trip, with two families staying at different places.... Is the following possible/doable/common, or just plain stupid? Let's say one family stayed at Villa Aldora and dove with Aldora Let's say another family stayed at a Villa down south and dove with, oh, let's...

    Quick Kauai questions / trip planning

    My wife and I are heading to Kauai for a work function mid-April. We each have about 200 dives under our (weight) belts, and have dove the other Hawaiian Islands before, but not Kauai. Our work function is at a resort on the far southern tip of the island. If we were to extend our trip to...

    Trip report: Coz 12/30-1/6

    Our family (Wife and I plus our 17/16/14 year old kids) just got back from Cozumel, and had one of our best vacations ever. Some really great family time on the island. Here's my stream-of-consciousness review: Direct flight from Denver on UAL really made it an easy trip down and back. I'm...

    Rental car.. sí o no?

    Pondering if we should rent a car or not for our upcoming trip. Family of 5, staying at Aldora and diving with them. We enjoy walking, and are familiar with the distance from Aldora to town. I don't recall taxi prices, though. We'd probably be doing a trip to Mega a few times and dinners...

    Diving with kids in Coz after New Years

    We'll be in COZ for a week starting 1/1. Wondering if other families will be there and diving with kids? It's a long shot, but I was thinking it'd be good to be teamed up on a boat that wants to avoid the deep dives. We have a 13 year old (that's surprisingly, very comfortable in the water...

    Big island vacation / dive question

    I have a "work" event on the big island in April, and we are staying up near Puako for a few days. We'd like to extend the trip and experience diving on the Big Island. Would you recommend staying at the same hotel in Puako, and driving to Kona and diving with operators down there, moving to a...

    My trusty Canon A620 just crapped out a few days before our trip. Anyone have a housing for my other camera that they'd sell or rent? Canon G16. I don't have enough time to overnight a housing before our trip. Crap crap crap.
