I have discussed this with various airline personnel.....they say that it is the "volume" of people traveling to BZE that is the issue. This does have something to do with the population. I have asked how the flight could be so much cheaper to go from say Miami to Quito than it is from Miami to Belize City. Their answer is that they can make up the costs in the number of flights/people that travel to and from there, because the population is so much bigger.

I would agree that the only way would be for GOB to subsidize the airfare, if only for one year, in order to increase the volume of traffic, then maybe the airlines would drop their rates?

I'm not sure about this, just the info I have gotten by asking around.
