Just my two cents.... last Dec. came to SP and US Airways charged $667.00 per person from GSP (Greenville/Spartanburg) to Charlotte and then to Belize City. Now -- for this Dec. the exact same Flight numbers and times and the fare is.............
$1,267.00 per person.Can't handle that kind of increase so looked around and have to drive to Charlotte and go American Airlines to Miami ant then to Belize City -- fare only $850.00 now. That is a
27% increase in one year!!
So, Elbert, as a newcomer that loved SP the first time... can't say when I will be coming back after this Dec. -- so yes, the whole thing (gas prices, falling dollar, increasing cost of travel) will have a big effect on how many mid-income tourists come down to Belize. I hate it, but it is true...
