I use either www.itravel2000.com or www.selloffvacations.com. Both have very good prices, and both are in Canadian dollars. Keep in mind that any price you see will have a $213 tax added to it, but that is the tax you will pay to go the DR on a plane ticket or anything. Check the packages and last minute deals, and keep watching. The price fluctuates daily, and I think it gets lower the closer you get to your departure date. Also, if you are flexible on what day you want to leave, it'll be even cheaper. I saw plenty in the $460 range (plus tax).

Sorry to hijack your thread, diamondback101. Back to you - there was another thread on Blackbeards a while back, search for it on the site and you'll find plenty of info on it.

Sensitive boo-boo kitty. LMAO. I grew up in park slope Brooklyn and just moved to AZ bout 8 months ago(thats why the heat is getting to me). Street savy is the least of my problems. My objection with you Rick is that I was not looking for working girls in my post but rather that we would both hook up in a club and would like to bring the girls back to the hotel to hang out. I realize that you are more familiar with "paying" for your good time but thats not what we both are hoping for. I do appreciate your last response however as well as everyone elses. We will continue to look at the post's to try and find a hotel that suits our needs.

No need to worry about taking over our thread Red Girl. Its all about trying to help people out.

Default My Friend cum on down.......

Stay at the A1's and have a ball, there are plenty of shag shacks outside the a1's, just ask anyone,,,,,,And Don't worry about the Canadian, The difference between a Canoe and a Canuck is that a Canoe tips and a Canuck does not.
fortunately there are a lot of good Canadians on this board and there is one Assho..

What can I say to this post other than that to know the DR is to understand how contradictory this is. Yo, yuse Parks Slope guyss. You'll have a great time if you get out of the AI. But you also have no idea what you're in for. The lines here are blurred on most things.

Who do you think you are hooking up with in the clubs in Puerto Plata no less? You are so green, good luck. Or cheap , perhaps.

In any event you could "hook up" with Beyonce in a club and if you are in an AI she isn't getting in not for moral reasons, becuase they are cheap and don't want people eating and drinking for free.

And I know a great deal about the DR scene and no, I am not used to "paying" for a good time, but I know many, many , many green stupid gringos that get in trouble becuase they know it all. Usually the ones on day 3 of the vacation who are out of money because the free girls in the clubs and on the streets have fleeced them dry.

Figures you are from Canada Rick.
diamondback101 knew "I AM CANDIAN" when he thanked me and dissed Rick, not as much as for what he said, as for being Canadian - all in the same posting.
