Well I do sincerely hope that all the changes that will be made are going to make a huge difference one day after all. The changes that we require would be appreciated. So come forward and make way for freshness.

 purchase in person maybe

Hi Andrei. Correct, there aren't many options. Only TAM and Amaszonas because Rurrenabaque is a tiny little town with a very very tiny airport and not all planes can land there. TAM and Amaszonas have small planes.

You could try waiting and purchasing your ticket from TAM in person when you get to Bolivia...

The last time I took a TAM plane it was smallish and there was quite a long line but I wasn't going to Rurre, I was going to Trinidad. So it could be that to Rurre maybe it wouldn't be so full (especially from Santa Cruz - most people fly to Rurre from La Paz).

So maybe you could just buy your ticket from TAM when you get here.

 Santa Cruz

Hello,

Thank you for your answer, i have expected to be difficult buying tickets with TAM :(

Another reason for being interested with this airline is the price for their flight to santa cruz, as what I have found with BOA or Amaszonas starts from 200$ on
the route la paz - santa cruz.

i think i don't have many options for this route, don't I?

Best,
Andrei

 a better alternative to tam

With government-owned websites it's hard to know if they are kept up-to-date; however, the prices seem to be just about in the correct range.

You might try contacting them by phone, if you can afford to do so. Their website doesn't appear to be equipped for online reservations, and they don't offer an email address either. Only physical address and phone.

I would recommend you take a look at the other airline that flies to Rurrenabaque which is http://www.amaszonas.com/

They are only a little more expensive, you can reserve and purchase your ticket online, and for just a tiny bit more, they actually provide 3-day La Paz / Titicaca / Rurre tours with round trip ticket included:
