    Question about Flying to the Bahamas

    When flying to Bahama's try to get there early before their customs closes for the evening. If you get there after they are closed, you will be charged additionally, I believe it was an extra $50 USD for each person. Flying at night is prohibited. Note: You will be flying in the Bermuda Triangle.
