The first international flight to arrive at SJD,
just to set the story straight, was a United flight. It arrived
before the Alaska Airlines Flight. I was holding a ticket outbound
and standing at the glass upstairs in terminal two. Because it was
the first international incoming plane the airport firetrucks were
stationed so that the plane had to taxi in between them. As it did
the trucks turned on the water cannons and created an arch for the
plane to go through. As it passed through they made sure to give
the windshield a good soaking as well. The personnel there
confirmed it to be the first and that's why the watery reception was
provided. My own experience was extremely positive. Every
passenger was assigned a personal valet who walked you through the
terminal and up to your gate; lots of federal police with smiles for
everyone. Both of my checked bags and my carry on were way oversize
and over weight. They said nothing and I was even allowed to walk
on board with a quart of bottled water in plain sight. No customs
checking bags at all. I can only speak on behalf of the outbound
passengers on my flight. It was unanimous that there is nothing to
worry about at SJD. Even the girl with the luggage cart refused my
tip. I will have to admit that I walked away feeling a bit guilty
that I had not insisted that she take it. In retrospect, I was in
shock at how together terminal two is and how genuinely cordial
everyone was. I flew into Houston/Bush International on my way to
Denver reminded of how our president handled Katrina. Cudos to the
Mexican Government. Thom Davis

ANSWERS -
DISCUSSIONS-
This category must have name and/or email address.
a. Re: Does the Cowboy Motel in Guerrero Negro allow pets?
It did when we stayed there in April, 2013. But unfortunately, the
room was not very clean or comfortable. To be fair, they were still
under construction at the time. The Halfway Inn at the state
line also accepts dogs. The location is not exactly glamorous, but
the hotel is being refurbished and is now much better than at the
end its former life as a dilapidated Desert Inn. The staff are very
friendly and helpful.
b. Bug Spray:
1) Chapito's
Pharmacy has mosquito spray.
2) We very much
like the Watkins Repellent Lotion, available from Amazon.com.
Doesn't smell l
like poison, goes on smoothly, lasts forever (I only need to apply
twice a day).
c. Bancomer - Access - Apple
1) I just
downloaded and updated Google’s browser “Chrome” and had no trouble
accessing my Bancomer accounts on my mid-2011 MacBook Air.
Perhaps the browser is the key rather than the operating system or
hardware of the computer from which you are trying to access the
bank.
2) I
just signed into my Bancomer account in LB using a Mac with the
Chrome browser. I did get a momentary response from the Bancomer
site that I had the wrong account number. I ignored that and
clicked through with no other issues. FYI the chrome browser is
more secure on both platforms (Mac or PC). Chrome uses its own
version of Flash Player that is always more current and secure.
Chrome will also translate for you on most websites. thecomptuerguy

QUESTIONS
- Please share your answers
a. Is Hwy 1 between Los Barriles and La Paz is driveable, or
will it be by November? I am considering a trip to meet up with my
sister and her husband who are bike touring down Baja, and so I need
to make sure we will be able to drive to La Paz to pick them up from
Los Barriles before I make my plans. And is the hurricane season
usually done by then? I hope you don't have any more bad hurricanes
this season! Lastly, any recommendations on places to stay that are
not over the top but nice but reasonable? Thanks.
karenmorey@hotmail.com
b. Is there any word if or when Costco in Cabo is going to
open?
rdscarpetta@hotmail.com
c. Bancomer minimum balance? Can someone please let me know
the minimum balance for Bancomer Peso and Dollar accounts? Name and
e-mail for the current Los Barriles Branch manager?Our flight was
cancelled so we'll be arriving later than planned. Thank you.
