Domestic Flight Information
We can arrange all of your domestic air on Tropic Air while in Belize. Just provide us with your air arrival and departure times and we will be able to coordinate the flights for you.
Please NOTE! We have been informed that effective since June 1, 2007 airline bookings are being raised 5% by Tropic Air. This is being driven by the historic high fuel prices. We will have to pass this higher cost along to our guests.
We expect to see this price increase for some of our boat and water based tours - fuel cost is a major factor in Belize. Given the recent movement of oil prices to $100US a barrel, we anticipate that we will see more price increases for airlines, and for our tour operators.
