Late, what is that? Sounds like some conspiracy word originating from the CIA.

M.I.A. -vs- Tragic Air (lookeelu again)

lookeelu?... I'll look that one up! Just face it... Tropic is better than MIA!!

Maya has always been very accommodating to me when I had no reservations or wanted to change times.

And you've never had to wait in line either, right? I rest my case!!!

Just kiddin! MIA is just fine.

The claim to fame I'v heard for Tropic Air is:

"The most accidents without a fatality"

Hi - I have used Tropic on all but one of my flights to AC.
The reason is simple. We were verrrrry late out of Houston on our third of fourth trip there and had made a reservation with Tropic on the 3:40 flight. The last flight to the island is at 5:40 and we did not land in Belize City until 6:00 and still had to clear customs. To our amazement there was an airplane waiting for the 9 people from the flight to take us to the island at 6:30. There were many sighs of relief. The schedule for the two airlines is identical from BZE; it is on the hour starting at 07:40 to 17:40. They both fly Cessna Caravans to the island which are relatively spacious 15 pasenger aircraft. Relatively spacious is a point of view. The individual seats are fine but if you tried to put 3 2 hundred pounders into the back row you would have to use a shoe horn.
