Long time lurker, first time (I think)poster.
Just thought I'd share some pics from my trip to Aruba earlier this summer. I wanted to take my drone and wanted to be respectful of the local rules so did reach out to the local government for official approval.
Getting approval was relatively easy:
Enjoy!

Getting approval was relatively easy:
- You can pretty much tell them the range of days you'll be on the island and where & when you think you might fly.
- They require a local mobile phone number and they do call the phone prior to granting approval! A 7-day SIM card and ESIM can be purchased for about $30.
- They ask that you call air traffic control when you begin & end your flight.
- Max height is 200'.
Enjoy!
