Flew BonairExcel from Bonaire to Curaçao - no problem. They won't let you take a nail clipper in cabin luggage, but they are not alone...

Make absolutely sure that you have a confirmed flight. Also call them before you leave and double check. Then double check again the day before you leave. They do not have as many planes flying now.

Used them the other week. Did the same thing. States to Aruba, Aruba to Curacao. Bonairexel was the area I was most concerned about on the whole trip. I tried to make reservations on their web site. No luck, 6 screens in, an error came up, something to do with the price in guilders. I called them and made reservations. They were going to email me the confirmation. Never received it. Called a week later. No reservations had been made. Re-made reservations and got a locator number. Total cost of phone calls, about $150.00. Got to Aruba, flight times were different from the ones listed on the web site. Had to pay in CASH. No credit cards accepted in Aruba. We wanted the 1:00 return flight to Aruba since our US flight was at 4:30. NO Sir, that's an illegal flight. You have check in 3 hours before your flight to the States. So we arrived in Aruba at 8:30 in the morning with a flight out at 4:30. Ran around Aruba again. Not such a bad thing since it's 20 degrees out here with snow flying.
 
hey devil man, sounds like BE is on island time. i wish i could kickback on schedules like they do. thanks for the info.
 
I come back this week with BE no problem.
