The weight limit was 50lbs last trip!! Not sure when they went up because it was January since we flew last :). Back packs are free and can be huge to carry on. Everyone brings a huge heavy back pack and they have never said anything :).
Thanks, interesting video. I recently watched an excellent video from the guys at Emense Coffee Movement which dealt with Poneloya and the SOS Nicaragua project set up to protect turtles on a nearby island, numerous volunteers from across the world are involved. It highlights the contributions of non-Nicaraguans contributing to Nicaraguan society. I'd love to see you do some videos of this kind as well. Showing how expats/migrants contribute to Nicaragua would be great, it's not always about what Nicaragua can do for us, but also what we can do for Nicaragua. Thanks.
My parents from Chicago are retiring in Nicaragua Leon. And I am in the process of looking for vacant homes to renovate. Or homes for sale close to the brand new hospital. What do you recommend? I’m here in Fargo North Dakota right now. Cheers!!
I don't know any specific homes. But the entire Fatima region has amazing homes. That's not far from the hospital. THere are lots of housing areas around there, to the east there is more opportunity, but it's also a rougher area. But it's a dense area, there are lots of options.
Spirit is not going to be flying USA to Nica from September until December apparently, just FYI. Ok, so you made this exact comment right after I posted this. 🤣
Excellent info, as always! I am confused a bit still about keeping your phone number for third-party verification (for credit card use etc). If you change physical Sim cards don't you get a new number? Maybe people use specific kinds of Sims? Maybe you just have to get an international plan? Thanks!
Hi Scott, thank you for this very informative video. I have a question with regards to car rentals. I am hoping you can help me with. We'll be arriving in Managua in November, do you recommend we rent a car straight from the airport? or from another car rental provider?
Only a few choices. If you leave the airport there aren't many rental locations. SJDS on the Costa Rican border has rentals. And the DoubleTree has them. There are a few. But yes, i'd want to rent from the airport. plus the airport sits on the main highway. likely you want to drive out of the city on that - it'll keep you from needing to wind around the city.
A lands sucks. Making reservations requires setting aside a day. They have messed up my flights many times. I've switched to American for my four trips a year to and from Miami.
I don't think Whatsapp is secure at all! lately I've been seeing a bunch of court cases that the prosecution has the conversation. even in the Hunter Biden case. I love the signal app. its way better with security and I have court records showing the Signal app refusing to give up conversations under a court order because the truly don't have that information! brother Scott great show!
that doesn't indicate the security. with any app if one party shares the messages it's after the security. i can do that with Signal or Telegram easily. whatsapp cannot give up conversations. signal, telegram, whatsapp or NicaHabla.... none of them HAVE the conversations to give up. whatsapp is the least secure of the group, but it's still super secure. the only thing that they store is meta data. no call data.

You are right, it went up and stayed up!

I just made a video to explain the SIM card dance. Should be up in about a week.
