This board is wonderful. One of my space a buddies sent me an e mail said he rented a car and is coming up to get Jim and I next Thursday. I know this will cost me a few Coor's, but hey what a great guy to do this. He has a great wife too, so now if the plane flys we WILL be at the BFB. |

Elaine, that would be great, I think all of would chip in to cover the cost of the van. So far today, I have had two couple tell me they have changed their mind, so it may just be the four of us. |

Phyllis, Here's a thought. What about seeing if one of the SPATS who will already be over there (like Uncle Bud) will rent a van at Hickam and pick up our large "group" at KBay on 28th??? That is when we know for sure that we are manifested through from North Island and what time the flight is due to arrive at Kaneohe. Elaine G |

Franklin, we are already putting together a group of folks to do the one car for one day. I think we will need a large van if all make the flight. I talked to the young man at K Bay and they are not allowed to leave cars at the terminal. So lets hope the flight is on time and that will take care of one problem. Thanks for suggesting this, wish some person at K Bay would just like to pick up some extra money, right now we are up to about 10 people, @even $20 aperson that would be some nice extra cash. |

Phyllis, Here's an idea: assuming there are at least two travlers in your party (or expand your party in a partnering effort w/ other SPATers), first rent a car from the K Bay side (on day of arrival) to get you from K Bay to the HIK side (transport, schlep luggage, etc). After re-location on the HIK side, rent a second car (on day two) from the HIK side for easy dropoff (& no drop off fee) on day of departure and return the first car back to the K Bay rental by driving both cars windward and returning with one. OK, it cost a little time but less than a $50 d/o fee. You might even be able to make both car rental reservations by cell, just make the reservations for sequential days. Another tweek, if you already have rental car company identified at K Bay, see if you can do a pre-rental agreement (w/a mainland based affiliate in Ft Worth...for doing the paper work stuff) and have the rental car delivered (d/o) at the K Bay PAX terminal for your after hours arrival. [I've yet to try making this arrangement, but asking may result in success.] Aloha, Have fun at the BFB. Wish I was there. |

OK this is getting just to hard! The flight we "hope" to be on is due in at 17:00, the bus website shows it stops running at 14:00. So with no shuttle service, can someone suggest a way to get down to HIC? By the way as of today, the carge is $50 to pickup car at K Bay and drop at HIC. |

John, we do not plan on having much luggage. Rich right now they are showing the plane coming in @ 17:00, but hey this flight has had so many changes already, I am not counting on anything till it happens. |

If your not loaded with luggage the bus is an option. The only problem is from the pax terminal to the bus is too long to walk. Last time I did that I got a ride from another Spat that was being picked up, otherwise a taxi to the bus stop shouldn't cost too much. |

Phyl There is another problem that I'd like you to be aware of,that's if the plane is delayed and arrives in Hawaii late,it most likely will land at Hickam. No I don't know what time MCBH closes for the night. |

Thanks Rich, that is what I was afraid of. It looks like several of us will be trying for the flight out of Ft.Worth next week. It better go when it says, we have 58 days on the book, no time for it to get delayed. |

We have landed at bases and needed trans to another base and could normally enlist other Spats to share the cost of trans to another location. In November, we landed at Spandalem and needed transportation to Ramstein. About ten of us shared the cost of transportation to Ramstein and the cost was not that much. PATs need to communicate with each other if this situation comes up. Happy Travels. |

Is anyone aware of a car service/shuttle that will take folks from K-Bay down to HIC? If several of us arrive on one flight, it might be nice just to have a way to get us all down there. With the price shared it might not be to high if there is such a service |
