Email blast to the listed associations or persons;
Greeting! I had sent this last week and I figured that with the holidays it may have been overlooked or thrown in spam mail as why I am resending this again. I am in the process of sending this to the airlines to get their stance on this as well as airfare to Belize continues to be the highest ticket in all of Central America.

To whom it may concern;
Over the past 3 years I have noticed a steady increase in the cost of airfare from the US to Belize and would like to bring this to your attention and raise some awareness. I am sure you are fully aware that with the sagging US economy a lot of financial belts are being tightened and travel decisions are being effected by this. I bring this up because my wife and I attempt to travel to Belize 3 times a year to visit friends, family and enjoy all that the country has to offer. Currently the cost of a round trip ticket in February from MEM to BZE is $800.00 and ask why can I fly significantly cheaper to other Central America destinations ( SJO, STT, CUN, CZM, SAP) using the same date range? One destination beat the price by 38% and as much as I love visiting the country of Belize one has to wonder why La Isla Bonita is so expensive?
Sincerely,
