They didn't think we would make their flight, but we said that we will run if they would try. Got to the gate about one minute before we all filed out to the plane. They were on the radio, doing everything they could to help us and even got our luggage on board the same plane. This is service beyond what the BIG carriers care to provide. Our return trip was equally efficient.
Baggage usually comes in using the United Baggage Claim.
We were in a hurry and made excellent time walking from the Gate. We arrived just as our luggage arrived. Yes, small prop-driven aircraft are noisier than the BIG jets, but the service more than makes up for it. Snorkelers can watch a large variety of reef fish in the protected swimming area. Parasail, jet ski, etc.
