Or perhaps you will feel invigorated by the many activities that are available to you.

I will need a deposit by April 6, 2008 if you want to go on this dive trip. I will be making a standby list for "extras".
As you can see room is limited. This is a "members only" trip.... So if you have not paid dues for 2008 you MUST include them with your deposit, you will also be required to be a current 2009 member at the time of the trip. If you need an application for membership please let me know and I will email you one so you can include it with your dues and deposit.
Each individual is responsible for their own flights from Pasco to Utila. There are a couple of different options available for flights into Utila. If you choose to fly into Roatan please budget for an additional $230.00 (price subject to change, fuel surcharges ect.) for a inter-island charter flight to Utila. Travel to Utila is most easily accomplished by first flying to San Pedro Sula Honduras, Tegucigalpa Honduras or Roatan Bay Islands. These three international airports have direct service from several U.S. cities including Miami, Houston, Atlanta and New Orleans.
Once you have arrived in San Pedro Sula or Tegucigalpa, you will need to clear customs. Once you have cleared customs, you will need to use one of several domestic airlines to reach Utila.
Most flights to Utila from San Pedro Sula and Tegucigalpa make a stopover in La Ceiba, the largest city near Utila. You may need to change planes in La Ceiba; the airline staff will let you know.
From La Ceiba you will need to take a ferry to Utila. The connection times from the airport to the ferry are very tight so you need to plan accordingly.
Once you arrive on Utila, staff will meet you at the airport and then provide transport to Utila Lodge, where you will be offered a complementary cocktail or beverage.
Bottom line on deposits:
$200.00 for Utila Lodge Due by April 6TH. (this is on a first come first serve basis)
$230.00 for Charter flight (Roatan to Utila) Due APRIL 6TH.
$60.00 for Delta flight reservation. Due APRIL 6TH.
PS. DONT FORGET YOUR DUES!!!!!!!!
