Vaccinations, cash, attire…

Please be sure to visit a travel clinic before Thursday, and state that you’re going to Punta Cana — they’ll know what to give you.

As far as how much cash to bring – the airport there will charge on the way in and out for customs, and you’ll need to give tips. Long story short, we strongly advise that you bring a bare minimum of $300 in US dollars to cover all of it. Small denominations is suggested, for ease of tipping at the destination.

In terms of attire, please bring a few “semi formal” sort of outfits — ie. long pants and button shirts — for the special dinners we are booking at the non-buffet restaurants.

Be sure that you check your luggage weight according to the restrictions stated in re itinerary you were given! 5kg for carry-on and 20kg for checked luggage. It’s very strictly monitored!

See you Friday morning at 3:00am at the Sunwing line up for checking in! The Sunwing desk is in Terminal 1 of Pearson International Airport. The flight takes off at 6:30, and they require check-in to occur 3 hours in advance.

Video of the Destination

First, an announcement..
The RSVP page is now live! Please go there before December 1 to say whether you can join us or not! We need to process reservations with our agent (with deposits for all those attending), so we can’t be any later than December 2nd!

Now, for some personal news about us..
We’ll be heading over for a week during the upcoming Christmas holidays to start arranging things at that end, so we’ll definitely have our own footage and photos to share in January — but for now, we’ve added a video of the destination that we found online!
