  1. Reef discovery is a very reputable company to do business with ... I assume you have the correct email address for Ato: fakaravaexplorer@hotmail.com You can also send him a private message on his Messenger/Facebook under: https://www.facebook.com/lissant
  2. This question comes up all the time ... here is my two cents worth on this important topic. Click on this link: Which Ship is Best for Visiting French Polynesia?
  3. Answer to the OP's question .... https://streamyard.com/n5q5pzttqqcy
  4. Here is my two cents worth on this topic .... https://streamyard.com/siugzakjihxxcczk
  5. "I prefer to use something like Trip Advisor to see what the real people think. Admittedly, you have to get through several reviews to get to a sense of the real information" Solid advice ... What you need to be careful of is those that go once and now they think they are an expert. I'm an 'expert' in regards to French Polynesia ... 32 trips there ... I've seen so much and can give a balanced take on this part of the world and/or ships that frequent FP. Look for those that have balance ... those that have been there many times 😉
  6. Susie Best time of year to go to French Polynesia BTW ... I have 3 Star Breeze cruises in FP coming up over the next 16 months.
  7. Possible for an added charge ... ATN does not include use of their lounge without paying for it unless your in business and the business class was purchased through ATN. My example was the case where you hold American Airlines most premium credit card, an annual $450 membership fee which also secures your membership is the Admirals club ... you purchased your business class seats on ATN using American miles, thus through American which is a code share airline with ATN. You can not use the ATN lounge at FAAA international. You would think your in business class flying on ATN ... you would be able to use their lounge without purchasing a pass ... but you can't. Your question/statement fell through the cracks ... I guess I should of stated that the exception is purchasing a pass for an added charge ... I don't read off of notes when I do a video ... simply talking so occasionally something might not get addressed such as the point you brought up. This was such a slap in the face (the example I mention) that the person will no longer fly ATN ... as I mentioned the person at the lounge desk could of made a mistake. Maybe I should stop with the videos ... I might miss something ....
  8. A little visitor to our garden this morning ...
  9. Hope this helps ... Regarding their lounge ... brother has the highest lounge plan with American. He code shared with ATN but purchased tickets with AA. He was in business class ... could not use the ATN lounge in Tahiti. Don't know if there was a mistake but that is what happened. Is it worth flying Premium Economy on ATN?
  10. Thank you for the kind words ... the background is the Maitai Lapita Village on Huahine. One of my favorite places to take pictures.
  11. Here you go ... How much local money should I bring?
  12. Taken yesterday from my patio. Red Tail hawk was about 75 yards away. This is why I love the Sony RXIV for a wildlife travel camera. The long reach of the lens make this shot possible. Sure I would love to have a 600mm full frame lens on one of my A7's but I don't so 90% of the time I use my cropped RX10IV.
  13. Taken last Sunday ... in the garden Sony RX10IV
  14. You might want to check to see if the Bora Bora motu is back in operation. It was not available a few months ago and they were taking people to Matira Beach
