ex LAX Sept 15

**BadBoyBilly** · 01-20-2012, 08:02 PM

Guys I am based in Melbourne Australia - I intend to arrive LAX at 08:15 on Sept 15 2012 - need a couple hours to clear customes etc - then want to head to Sosua.

Any possible way I can arrive into Sosua on Sept 15? Don't care about which airline and will prolly travel 1st / biz so cost not a great concern.

Cannot for the life of me see how I can do it - any advice greatly appreciated.

Got you. The answer to your question is you're right, it's not possible. Simply enjoy your night in Miami and arrive in Sosua on the 16th ready to go.

Damn - back to the drawing board.

Nope. No chance.

No matter how you route it, the earliest you can get into POP is 150pm the following day via AA out of MIA.

You could fly into Santiago by around 8pm on the 15th, but it's a 9am flight out of LAX so you'd have about 45mins to claim your bags, clear customs, re-check your bags and get on the plane. Not bloody likely.

Yeah thasnks guys I didn't think it was workable.

Even being first of MEL LAX flight and APEC card so I can access express immigration clearance aint gonna get me there on time
