Another couple dove with them and seemed happy with them.

The resort was full. Weather was perfect. Sunny, breezy and dead flat
seas.
Water temp was 84-86F.

We went FLL-IAH-HNL-GUM, 3+8.5+7.5+2=21 hrs in the air+ a couple more
on the ground.
CO was late, late, late all the way.
We walked off one plane and on to the other as they closed the doors.
Amazingly, four out of four checked bags made it too. I was impressed.
