LIKE TO SUGGEST FOLLOWING ALTERNATIVE:

A. ON ARRIVAL SPAIN VIA AERONAVES DE MEXICO

FLIGHT 450 LEAVING MIAMI FRIDAY SAMKO WOULD GO DIRECILY

TO HOTEL OF STATION SELECTION. STATION OFFICER WILL ALSO

OCCUPY HOTEL IN ALIAS AND INITIAL CONTACT WITH SAMKO WILL

BE MADE IN HOTEL. CINCIDENTALLY, BELIEVE NO NEED
