Tahiti

Wednesday, June 13th, 2007

For our honeymoon, we will be going to the French Polynesian islands of Tahiti…wheeeeee!!! We booked everything through Costco Travel (1-877-849-2730).

Here’s our flight itinerary (as of 2007-06-08 [4th revision]):

Date Plan Time Airline Flight
2007/10/09 Depart Los Angeles
Arrive Papeete		 0410P
0930P		 Air Tahiti Nui 21 B
2007/10/10 Depart Papeete
Arrive Moorea		 1100A
1110A		 Air Tahiti 1110 U
2007/10/13 Depart Moorea
Arrive Bora Bora		 1120A
1210P		 Air Tahiti 276 Y
2007/10/16 Depart Bora Bora
Arrive Papeete		 0250P
0340P		 Air Tahiti 240 Y
2007/10/16 Depart Papeete
Arrive Los Angeles		 0645P
0600A		 Air Tahiti Nui 202 B

The 3rd revision is here:

Date Plan Time Airline Flight
2007/10/16 Depart Bora Bora
Arrive Papeete		 0610P
0700P		 Air Tahiti 444 Y
2007/10/16 Depart Papeete
Arrive Los Angeles		 1000P
0915A		 Air Tahiti Nui 102 B

Note that we now lose 3 hours 20 minutes because we have to leave earlier from Bora Bora.

After speaking with Costco Travel, turns out that Air Flight Nui axed the 10 pm flight that leaves Papeete back to Los Angeles and they are able to make as many changes to the schedule even up to the day. After a couple calls to Costco Travel and them calling Air Flight Nui, turns out because our tickets have not been purchased (because our trip is so far out), there is no guarantee in price.  So we have to pay an additional $80 on top of the total cost for a later flight (11:10pm).
