Yes.... I'm going to order a SIM card on their web site (SETAR) a couple weeks before my arrival. They won't send one to me but, I can get a local Aruba number at the time of ordering. All I need to do is once I get there is to present my email confirmation them. SETAR is a main carrier there...

Thanks.... I saw that natural bridge on a couple YouTube videos. Looks like an awesome area for sure. Thanks again. ??

Basically, the two reasons for renting a hardtop Jeep is to get around the island and drone flying. An excursion would have costs close to the same and were not going to follow around a crowd. This way we can take our time and do whatever. Plus, driving is on the right side like here in the US...

Thanks for the great info. Going to rent a Jeep Wrangler with air for the day.... Still trying to figure out what to do about having an Aruba local cell number for the day...... due to DCAA (Department of Civil Aviation Aruba) regulations. ?

Also, anyone know of any "Good" No Fly Zones for Aruba & Curacao showing better detail? The one below for Curacao is extremely vague.

I went ahead and asked for recreational registration papers for Oranjestad, Aruba this morning with the DCAA. After visiting UAVcoach the biggest hang up I see under the General Rules for Flying is; A local mobile telephone number (international number will not be accepted) where the operator...

Thanks for the heads up on Griff & Alyssa.... I will definatily check them out. As for paperwork, I wouldn't even try flying without it. I received all my paperwork for Curacao within two days. I have read about others that waited for several weeks in older threads/posts. Either I got lucky...

Royal Caribbean does but, it must stay in your room with the exception of disembarking. See link below; Royal Caribbean Allows Drones

Just received my stamped CCAA registration and BTP paperwork for Curacao!! ??
