depart: 11:20am arrive: 11:50am price: 522B for Business Class (economic was full) 11:17:56 Other than paying $20 more, I noticed zero difference from economic class 11:35:35 Ok, I do get a little lemonade drinks, that maybe my $20 difference The seats are also a bit wider, but I guess that's about it... 11:41:49 they are giving away free newspaper, but I can't read it. There is left over lunchbox in the pocket, they probably missed that during the in flight cleanup. 11:52:26 at the supposed landing time, the flight haven't taken off yet...(the flight is only half an hour) So there is a snack lunch..... No one checks your ticket, so you can be flying to the wrong destination and nobody will care... Hopefully, my flight will land in Santa Cruz. 12:37:20 Arrive Santa Cruz, flight time is about 30 minutes... and 30 minutes waiting in cabin.... |

12:52 | Price: 50B
It costs more money to go from airport to the taxi station then from the taxi station to Samaipata (which is 3 hours away). |
13:18 | Price: 30B
13:53:09 still waiting for taxi The taxi is supposed to be ?expresso?. In Bolivia expresso probably has the same connotation as ?suicidal?. Half way of the trip, it goes into a death race with a minivan. The minivan has advantage on straight roads... but our taxi takes advantage when there is no road.... |
