Puerto Vallarta Airport Daily Flight Report – August 17, 2026

Puerto Vallarta International Airport’s active schedule lists 42 arrivals and 42 departures for Monday, August 17. The operating schedule includes 31 domestic and 11 international flights in each direction.

Flight information was checked at 6:47 a.m. CST, Puerto Vallarta time. The first departure had already left, while the first arrival was due at 7:40 a.m. Airport displays and airline schedules can change throughout the day.

No delay was consistently confirmed across the dated flight boards at the time of review. Flight activity was underway, and no airport-wide closure or broader operational interruption was shown.

One canceled Calgary listing remains in the status feed

A separate live status page for WestJet WS2240 marks the Calgary-to-Puerto Vallarta flight canceled. It had been scheduled to arrive at 1:15 p.m.

WS2240 does not appear on the active PVR arrival schedule. That schedule instead shows WestJet WS2242 arriving from Calgary at the same time, followed by WS2241 departing for Calgary at 2:20 p.m.

The available public data does not establish whether WS2240 was a withdrawn schedule entry, a flight-number change or a separate canceled operation. Passengers holding a reservation under WS2240 should confirm their itinerary directly with WestJet.

No outbound cancellation was shown.

Conflicting estimate for the first arrival

The first arrival, Viva VB1166 from Mexico City, had conflicting estimates. Aircraft tracking data showed the flight airborne after leaving the gate at about 6:14 a.m., with an estimated 7:39 a.m. arrival. Another status feed estimated arrival at 7:59 a.m.

Because the two feeds did not agree, the flight is not classified as a verified delay in this report. Travelers meeting VB1166 should check the airport display or Viva’s flight-status service before leaving for PVR.

42 active arrivals span the full day

The dated PVR arrival schedule begins with Viva VB1166 from Mexico City at 7:40 a.m. and ends with Aeroméxico AM340 from Mexico City at 11:02 p.m.

International arrivals are scheduled from Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, Calgary, Phoenix, Salt Lake City and Los Angeles. Domestic service includes Mexico City’s two airports, Monterrey, Guadalajara, Tijuana, Toluca, León/Guanajuato, Querétaro and Cabo San Lucas.

42 departures run from 6:18 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Aeroméxico AM331 for Mexico City was the first departure, scheduled at 6:18 a.m. The departure status record showed the aircraft departing during the morning check.

Viva VB4349 to Monterrey is the final scheduled departure at 9 p.m. The heaviest outbound period runs from late morning through early evening.

Evening thunderstorms could affect operations

Conditions at the airport were suitable for flight operations early Monday. The 5:44 a.m. MMPR observation reported eight miles of visibility, light wind and scattered clouds at 4,000 feet.

The airport’s aviation forecast calls for generally favorable visibility through much of the day. Temporary thunderstorms and rain are possible from approximately 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., with visibility potentially falling to three miles and cloud bases near 2,000 feet. Light thunderstorm activity could continue after 10 p.m.

The 6 a.m. national forecast calls for 25 to 50 millimeters of rain in western Jalisco, along with lightning, possible hail and wind gusts of 40 to 60 km/h. The forecast does not establish that flights will be delayed, but passengers traveling late Monday should watch for changes.
