For Tahiti Air Nui.. the retunr flights for Sept. are Tues - Thurs - Sat. I added an extra day also, I refused to leave a day earlier. However, you can still take the flight that connects in LAX if you dont want to add an extra day.

Re: French Polynesia (Tahiti, Bora Bora, etc.) Honeymoons!!!!!!
Ok...I actually called and found out. I cant believe the tour company didnt call my agent! Anyway, I think we will come back a day later now. Thats kind of good, b/c that is the day i wanted to come back originally. I dont think we could afford Bora Bora another night at the I.C., so maybe we'll stay another night in Moorea.

We couldn't afford to stay another night in Bora Bora so we just kept everything the same (all interisland flights too) and just added the extra night on tahiti, this way we can do some shopping and enjoy the pool at the IC!

Re: French Polynesia (Tahiti, Bora Bora, etc.) Honeymoons!!!!!!
Just for kicks, I would go on the Air Tahiti Nui website and check your flight dates! My TA didn't even realize the flights were changed at first, only the time!! It looks like instead of mon & wed returns they changed it to tues and thurs.

Re: French Polynesia (Tahiti, Bora Bora, etc.) Honeymoons!!!!!!
OMG!!!! Can I give you all a huge ?
I can not believe my TA!! I checked the Air Tahiti website, and as you said, my flight did not exist!! I called my TA and she told me that someone swithced my flight from Aug 30th to Aug 29th...but no one informed me!! I mean, didn;t they see that I have a reservation for the evening of the 29th in Bora Bora?? Grrr!! So...I also booked an extra night at the Intercontinental in Tahiti, but I am starting to get really worried. I just feel like it is so expensive

Re: French Polynesia (Tahiti, Bora Bora, etc.) Honeymoons!!!!!!
Yes when I called last night they switched to returning Tues. Thurs and Sat. Thats it for now. Don't go by the website though...it may not be updated yet. I would definitely call Air Tahiti instead of your Travel Agent to be safe. MINE didnt know about it. I had to have her call the travel company she booked with. They didnt notify her and left my return open ended!

The direct flights from Tahit to NYC changed to a Tues - Thurs -Sat schedule. I was on a dierect return flight for 9/6 and had to add an extra day to leave 9/7 (thurs). Check with your TA. However I noticed Tahiti Air hasnt notified alot of the TA's
Edit sched typo

Yeah, as of now only the direct flights have changed. The flights connecting in LAX stood the same. I know cause that was an option my TA gave me, I could leave wednesday but would have to sconnect in LAX. I couldnt do it because my FH is already upset about the 11-12 hr flight... if I pu thim on a 15 hr flight, we'd end up divorced by the time we got back he's very scared of flying, im gonna have to drug him

Re: French Polynesia (Tahiti, Bora Bora, etc.) Honeymoons!!!!!!
For those of you who are adding an extra night to your stay, are you going to be staying in Papeete your last night or are you going to be staying a day longer on another island? I wonder if its worth the hassle to maybe try and stay an extra night in Bora Bora (which is in the middle of my HM)
How much extra has the TA charged you guys for the extra night?

I think most of the "chicas" are staying an extra night in PPT. as for me BB is the alst island we are staying in so I opt to add an extra night there. Originally I was in BB pearl and the TA said is would be an $343.50. But he also gave me another quote to switch to a better resort on BB with meals included.

Re: French Polynesia (Tahiti, Bora Bora, etc.) Honeymoons!!!!!!
I am probably going to stay another night in Moorea. Thats our first Island. Then we go to Bora Bora I.C. for an overwater bungalow and we can't afford another night there. I dont know about another night in Pappeete the last night. I havent heard to do that. I wonder if we should and if its worth it.

Re: French Polynesia (Tahiti, Bora Bora, etc.) Honeymoons!!!!!!
Denise, are you staying at the new I.C in BB? Where are you staying in Moorea? I booked for the I.C. there too..but now I wondered if I shoulda done the Pearl or the Sheraton instead. My last island is gonna be Taha'a at Le Taha'a Private Island (definitely cannot afford to stay another night there).
If I add another night say in Moorea, will it cost extra to move all my reservations down 1 day?
This is all such a huge pain... Is it weird that I'm more looking forward to my honeymoon than my wedding?
