I was watching something so intently, I partly missed the Avianca Fokker.... Bit slow today, maybe because of the date?

I thought I was joking yesterday about the date, but it seems not only Arubans are superstitious, so are Americans.... Yesterday was very slow with the american carriers, today they had to wait in line to get to the gate....

Some nice surprises today. The Surinam 737 was cancelled yesterday and turned up today for a Paramaribo - Aruba flight instead of the usual Par-Aua-Miami vv flight. The real surprise though was the TAME airbus. It was about 5 hours early, the advertised slot time was 2245. Nice catch....

On the general aviation side the american registered Jetstream was a surprise as they normally visit the international terminal instead of the smaller GA platform.

Busy day, it started early with the Surinam B737. Later on it got very busy with the American carriers, and it remained quiet on the general aviation side....

I took the sunday off, and judging by what I saw from the beach, I didn't miss much.... Regular traffic, with some small twins visiting.... Nothing special anyways....
