June 16 - After four months of inactivity, the leading Canadian airlines have begun to fly to Mexico and its tourist destinations, including Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit.

 

For the record, in January 2021, the Government of Canada tightened its measures against Covid-19 and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that all flights to Mexico and the Caribbean would be suspended until April 30th to curb the spread of the disease. However, the suspension continued, and it was not until June 5th that WestJet resumed operations, with one flight a week from Calgary.

 

Since then, air connectivity with the region is being restored gradually through the “Licenciado Gustavo Díaz Ordaz” International Airport, which serves Puerto Vallarta and the Riviera Nayarit.

 

Swoop returns in the fall

In addition to WestJet, ultra-low-cost carrier Swoop has just announced that it will restart operations this fall season, with flights throughout Canada to other “sunny and fun destinations” in the United States, the Caribbean, and Mexico, including the Riviera Nayarit and Puerto Vallarta.

 

Swoop returns on October 5th with the Hamilton-Puerto Vallarta/Riviera Nayarit and Edmonton-Puerto Vallarta/Riviera Nayarit routes. On November 3rd it will resume the Abbotsford-Puerto Vallarta/Riviera Nayarit and Toronto-Puerto Vallarta/Riviera Nayarit routes. Finally, on November 4th, it will inaugurate the Winnipeg-Puerto Vallarta/Riviera Nayarit route.
