5.3 We are happy to book
internal flights
for all students upon request. Students can either pay us direct OR the
airline at the airport. Ideally we need 1 week advance notice to arrange
this. The prices are the real and actual price of the flight and therefore
vary on availability and season (the more warning, normally the cheaper we
can get them) and are also non commissionable. Normally about $150 USD one
way to Merida, and $75 USD one way to Barcelona (Venezuela).
Arriving Late?
Students normally arrive the day before programs start. However, due to
international flights etc Jakera is happy to receive students before this
for $20 pp/pd including dinner and breakfast (one day per month of stay is
free of charge).
If students arrive later than 14:00 to Caracas they will not have
sufficient time to make same day
connecting flights to Merida.
On request we will book a local Hotel for them. The price is about $50 USD.
We meet at airport and transfer to Hotel, and return to airport in the
morning for their inward Flight.
