Bonaire is one of the Dutch Antilles and lies only a few miles to the East of Curacao. It's a great place for a vacation, especially if you're a scuba diver. The island offers one of the world most beautiful under water worlds.

But of course you are also able to go spotting. The traffic isn't very diverse or dense, but what comes is nice. KLM flies a 2-daily MD-11 into Flamingo Airport (other airlines, types, routes etc.!!)

None, you could rent a car/bike to get to the airport. You could also walk as it's not very far from Kralendijk and easily doable. Just be careful you don't get sunburned!
None, you could rent a car/bike to get to the airport. You could also walk as it's not very far from Kralendijk and easily doable. When you go by foot, you can significantly reduce the walking by walking through the Plaza Hotel. To get there, go to the J.A. Abraham Blvd. and follow this road in Southen direction (away from town). Just be careful you don't get sunburned!
