| Subject: | Re: [roatan] Sol Air possibly cancelling Dallas Flights! |
Something you west coasters might consider, if Sol cancels their flights from Dallas, it might seem the long way around, but it also may be more cost effective and you could possibly avoid Taca. Fly to Miami and take American. Of course you would need to go through San Pedro, or take the direct flight on Taca from Miami. Right now, for October, San Fran to Miami is $370 RT and Miami to Roatan, less than $400. San Fran to New Orleans, $326, then N.O. to Rtb. Flights from Miami are traditionally much cheaper than Dallas or Houston. I just routed a friend from Rtb to Portland, Oregon for less than $600 total and he did not have to go via El Salvador which is the route Taca usually uses to get to the west coast, which always means getting into San Fran around midnight and waiting until the early morning to get out of there. This way, he flew direct to Miami on Sunday, arrived at 1:40 PM, left Miami at 3:50 PM and arrived in Portand at 8:30 PM the same day, instead of +1 day later. Just a thought. Sol did have a major flaw in it's schedule in the fact that their flights to Miami did not get there until after 11 PM and who wants to be stuck in Miami at that time. I guess that I am one of the few people that has never had a problem with Taca, even though I have flown them litterally dozens of times in the 4 years that I have been in Honduras. Usually get the best fares too. I also had a friend that had a horror story about Sol.
