Someone made a mistake in your favor. It should be US$20.

I have a little question now. I bought a ticket to the DR before the departure tax increase. When I check in for my flight will I be billed for that and have to pay out of my pocket right there.

Looking forward to my trip

It is Aug 26-Sept 4. All I know is that departure tax was 10US and then it was 20US. I don't know what will happen to those who purchased tickets with the 10US departure tax included, I would think that they would have to pay at the departing airport?

AA hit me for ten smackers at the check-in counter on July 6th and gave me a receipt since I paid before the amount went up $20. Still 1,000% better than the old days in the departure lounge first with stamps and then with stickers. I bought my ticket for tomorrow's trip last week so I assume I am paid in full for that.

Rick,
That is what I expected. I would be envious that you go there so much and I don't but hey in the future I will probably be able to take several trips a year too

A favor for me, check to see if the closed down bars, especially the Madhouse will reopen soon, that was my favorite bar on Duarte. Have a great trip and catch you on the flip side

If you see Peter and Fleming at La Playa Vista, tell them that Howie, and little Howie are doing great, I think they were suprised to see me bring the baby there and Peter made a big fuss over him. I think I even got a free Presidente

Thanks.
