So, do us guys in Saskatchewan not count.. No flights out of Saskatoon or Regina????

Guess we'll have to improvise. http://www.relentlesslyoptimistic.com/i ... ooning.jpg

Some come from there... :)

The new New Canadian Direct Flights will give Canadians more options when flying to PV...That is good news..

A little wait though till it begins..

One of my 3 sons works for West Jet..We have the parents pass..stand by .... flights are either 20.. 30..or 40 dollars anywhere West Jet flies...Oh plus taxes... :)
I guess if we were going to PV and staying more than a week or 2 the new direct flight to PV on West Jet would be wonderful but when going for only a week or 2...Can't beat some of the AI deals out there...

Just my humble opinion.. :)

editing typos.. :oops: :)

I will be making my second trip from Edmonton to PV on a westjet flight this oct. From my personal experience they are second to none.Also I will be able to use my airmiles with them now instead of having to use Air Canada. This is great news indeed. :D

Direct flights

Post by sunshine79 » Sat Jun 14, 2008 2:38 am

Hey all you Canadians.. I actually work for Transat Holidays & Nolitours. We have flights from Saskatoon and Regina to PVR, they start at Xmas. Also we fly from many smaller airports as well using WestJets planes. If you have any questions id be more than happy to answer them. PM me and ill get back to you pretty quick :)

I am a Canadian who lived in Vallarta for many years and now go back to visit at least 5 times a year... I get bugged at work all the time because I keep going back... What can I say Im in love...

Yeah they're direct all right, but they are all charters... Westjet and SkyNOservice both fly out of Saskatoon and Regina.. If you want to just fly down you have to call either Nolitours/World or any of the other tour companies that have bought a chunk of it and directly book the flight at their inflated prices. If you are just flying down it's better to book directly (lots cheaper) out of Calgary, Edmonton, or even Winnie town.

Service is always excellent with Westjet, but it's not really the same. IMHO
