If I bring most of my gear (I don't have a BC or regs) I'll need to rent them for $16 and pay $30 r/t for my gear on the plane. So in the end, I can wear most of my own stuff and pay $46 or rent everything and pay $34. Just wondering due to size of room on ship and stuff like that. Any info on previous experiences would be greatly appreciated.
It would say it depends, if you can find gear off the rack that fits you well then it's fine to rent as long as the dive op you pick has decent gear. (not always the case) If you're like me and can not find off the rack that fits well then the choice should be obvious.

I prefer my own mask, fins & snorkel, but it shouldn't be a big deal

Since you're renting the reg, see if they will put a new mouth piece on for you or bring your own.
