It's the airlines! Look at the Fuel Surcharge: 240.00US$! The airlines implemented this surcharge last summer when oil on the world market was around 150 US$ per barrel. Since then it dropped down to approximately 50 US$ per barrel and the airlines didn't touch the fuel surcharge. Now it's around 75US$ and you'll see - in case the oil would pass the 100 US$ airlines would immediately surcharge the surcharge!

On Wednesday - the No 1 travel day in the US American Airlines cancelled the first of 2 flights from Miami to Belize. Imagine: one of the most important travel days of the year and one out of 2 flights to Belize cancelled - isn't that a shame?

But it's not just the airlines: It's BTB and all the associations who are involved into tourism marketing for our country and it must stop now.

Yes, maybe we must guarantee sold seats now - we cannot continue with the same errors over and over again. I had a call 4 weeks ago of some possible customers for Thanksgiving and they said that flights from Canada were 1250 $ per person and they would not want to come to Belize - they had offers to go to Cancun with flights, accommodation and all inclusive for 999 $.

There's one thing left for me to say: "Have a very nice vacation in Mexico!"

Again another beautiful day in paradise - just smile and be happy :-)
