    Weird tip for Canadians living in the USA ... even though you choose the correct options, at the very end it may show the wrong citizenship... I filled it out at home, waited in line at customs for 30 minutes just to be told it said USA which didn't match my Canadian passport. I had to go to their computer and do it again, same end result, but the 3rd time it finally had the correct info for the final results.
    When I did it before leaving DR, same thing, I had to go through the process a couple times before it was correct at the very end. Strange, but that's when I knew it definitely wasn't me 😂

    One comment on the E-Ticket application -- while the website seems to work perfectly on an iPhone, it is total garbage on Android. Multiple members of our group verified this -- it is practically impossible to fill this thing out on every Android phone we tried, but we had no issues on any iPhone. If you have an Android phone, I suggest you use a PC to fill the thing out -- it works perfectly on a PC as well. This was as of 3/19/22

      That is Bacardi island off the coast of Samana. That's what they tell the tourists, but its real name is Cayo Levantado. They were remodeling a big resort on the island when we visited, I think it is scheduled to reopen this summer. Bahia Principe - a quick google search should bring it up 👍

      Put an international plan on your mobile device. You can use your phone while moving through the airport and while getting yourself settled. Then hit up a Claro or Altice store and get local sim. Data is cheap here compared to North America. Once it's working cancel the international plan you were using.

    • @TriniCanoAdventures
      @TriniCanoAdventures 2 года назад +2

      most phone carriers have a international plan (if not free) for using your phone or data.
      If not & you really need internet while out & about outside from your hotel, you can purchase a prepaid sim or hotspot from Claro or Altice.
      If you go to an official store, they will take a photo copy of your passport to setup an account that you can re-up every time you visit the country.
      Or you can go to a local phone shop & set it up that way...maybe only a one time use though.
      (*Note most places you go have wifi including your hotel...just ask nicely while you order your beer)

    • @WhiskeynRum
      @WhiskeynRum  2 года назад +1

      Correct, stop at any of the local cell phone shops and pick up a sim. 20 bucks and you’ll have enough data for a few weeks
