Why is this Got 1 Minute?
Wasn’t the first one of these a short video? That made sense, I guess.
All articles involve using my time.
Unfortunately flights to Mexico City tend to be twice as much as those to the coast. Often makes it impossible for our family to visit us in Tepoztlan, Morelos.
All this talk of extra flights from Canada, and only one city in BC was mentioned. Service from the eastern portion such as Ottawa Montreal, Quebec city to Puerto Vallarta is sorely lacking and extremely expensive. It cost almost 75% more than to fly direct to Cancun. Maybe Air Canada and WestJet need to start acting up so that Mexico doesn’t just cater to Americans. There’s a whole other world besides them.
Interesting that there is no discussion about more direct flights in and out of Merida airport to the US and Canada.
I’d relly love to see a direct flight fro Toronto to Guadalajara. Even one a week. I’m sure it would fill.
How about more morning flights out of Chicago to Mexico City since Chicago has the third largest Mexican population in the U.S. Instead, we have flights at 2:00 AM. It’s ridiculous.
