I guess early flights help to get to Miami on time or even 15-20 minutes earlier than scheduled. AA also has online app to track our baggages. We saw they were transferred from the domestic flight to international flight within 30 minutes of layover and we had about 60 minute layover in Miami.

Silkies like that are more common in May, but now less reliably so. We saw plenty of silkies on my trip but not schools. The schools of hammerheads however... like every dive. Fingers crossed you have a similar experience! Stay safe and have a great one out there.

@Dan and I leave for Buenaventura in just over an hour. Looking forward to this adventure, more than a year and a half in the works for me

I’ll come back to Cali Intercontinental just for this yummy lunch. The whole meal was < $20 at Maki Bar.
