Will post that as soon as I hear anything on Dallas Sharon. Keep your fingers crossed and thanks for the compliment.
Glad to hear this!
Do you have a link to the original story about this? I did a quick google and couldn’t find any info.
There was no original story. It is someone here who was working with AA to get flights cheaper to Belize as to how I found out.
Me too Teri.
Let’s hope the other carriers lower too!
I agree it is long overdue Bob
Show me the Money! Please publish some fares.
In order to see prices Gwen all you have to do is got to the AA site link in the post and check at dates you want to fly. This info came from someone here who was working with AA to get them to lower prices on flights to Belize – I just posted what they gave me.
Just for the halibut, I priced a June mid-week trip from MIA/BZE & return. $558.45 is not such a great deal. If that is a 40% savings, then have people been paying $900???? methinks not.
While I agree that does not sound like a great deal I was told flights recently out of Miami have been around the $800 range (which is crazy but does not surprise me) so in that case $558.45 is not a bad price lol Any airline higher-ups who may stumble upon this Please lower your prices to fly to Belize – high flight prices are hurting us.
Good to know! I’ll have to check if they have deals from Cali 🙂
Airfare is skyrocketing this summer, by all accounts. With that in mind, these deals are not too bad.

Please keep me posted if you find any good deals from Cali Shelly.

Hi JT The official lobsterfest schedule will be posted soon so watch for that as it will be a week long list of activities. If you arrive June 21st it looks like you will just miss ie as lobsterfest ends June 19th with the big block party.
I am glad to find your blog. I have been to Belize 3 times and San Pedro twice. I am very close to retirement. Ambergis Caye is an awesome place. I am just not sure I want hot weather 365 days a year. I have been all over Central America and still looking for the perfect spot for me. I will read your blog daily now that I have found it. I am glad you made the escape and have found a way to enjoy San Pedro while making a living. I encourage more young folks to do the same. Keep up the great work!
