Flight
I also got some info from Crazymoon. Her husband is flying in today. She said that she called Air Transat in POP and the lady said that they can purchase a flight on Tuesdays to fly on Friday or Saturday. It is basically a selloff of what is left. It cost her $440US or $500Can. I am assuming that it would be the same for Punta Cana.
What did you find out?

Hey Kimmygirl-
When Orlando flew, he left from POP. He went to Skyservice, Signature, and Air Transat. They would only sell him the ticket through Air Transat. He paid about $500 Cdn. He had to show his letter of PR, which the lady at Immigration told him no one could open until he landed in Cda. However, this is not the case, they have to open it at Air Transat when he purchases the ticket b/c they have to see he does have PR.
Also, when you hubby picks up his passport, tell him not freak out b/c there will be an expiry date on his Visa. For 3 months, I believe. He basically has 3 months to get his butt to Cda, otherwise he'll have to go through this whol rig-a-morol all over again. But they will not kick him out once he arrives in Cda, after the 3 months. They will put a big line through the Visa once he lands in Cda, so it cvan't be used again.
He'll get his picture taken when he arrives in Immigration, for his PR card which will be mailed to him about 2 weeks later.
When he gets off the plane, he'll go through the Immigration line, like everyone else, but once he gets through, he tells them he's landing in Cda for the 1st time, and they will direct him to the room behind the Immigration officers, to go and fill out his PR card info. Then he can go and hget his suitcase, and see you! Congratulations, best of luck!

Baileyboy,
When your husband picked up his passport, did they also give him a package with all of your documents and pictures that you sent in?? When my husband when to get his they just handed him that and didn't mention anything about a letter of PR which he should hand to Immigration in Canada. So i was just wondering if they'd just stuck it in with the rest of the stuff. You'd think they'd mention it though if it's something rather important.!! Now i'm curious if he even has one. Thanks 4 ur info.
There's a nice couple that brings a couple of cases from the US and money is raised for the kids in the DR.
OOoh, cool!! You can buy it in the States? I didn't know that. I'll have to look for it next time i'm over there. THanks!
