Sunwing Announces New Direct Flight Route from Victoria to Puerto Vallarta, Enhancing Canadian Tourism Connectivity

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico – Sunwing, a prominent Canadian airline and tour operator, has announced the launch of a new direct flight route from Victoria, British Columbia, to Puerto Vallarta, starting operations on December 10, 2024. This expansion marks a significant boost in tourism connectivity between Canada and the popular Mexican Pacific destination, according to information released by the Puerto Vallarta Tourism Trust.

The new route will operate with a weekly frequency, adding an estimated 700 additional passengers each month to the already vibrant tourist influx in Puerto Vallarta. This development underscores the increasing demand for travel to Puerto Vallarta from various regions across Canada, particularly from British Columbia’s capital.

With the introduction of this route, Sunwing will now offer direct flights to Puerto Vallarta from ten Canadian cities for the upcoming winter season. The airline’s extensive network will include Calgary, Edmonton, Montreal, Ottawa, Quebec City, Regina, Toronto, Vancouver, Winnipeg, and Victoria. This strategic expansion is accompanied by the availability of Sunwing’s all-inclusive vacation packages, designed to cater to the diverse needs of travelers seeking a comprehensive vacation experience.

The decision to add Victoria to Sunwing’s roster of departure cities highlights the growing appeal of Puerto Vallarta as a premier destination in the Mexican Pacific. The city’s picturesque beaches, vibrant culture, and warm hospitality continue to attract visitors from across North America, particularly during the winter months when travelers seek to escape the colder climates of Canada.

This latest route addition is not only a testament to Puerto Vallarta’s enduring popularity but also reflects a broader trend of increasing air connectivity between Canada and Mexico. The introduction of more direct flights from Canadian cities is anticipated to further boost tourism numbers, providing a significant economic impact on the local tourism industry in Puerto Vallarta.

The Puerto Vallarta Tourism Trust has expressed optimism about the continued growth in tourist arrivals, emphasizing the importance of such direct routes in maintaining and enhancing Puerto Vallarta’s position as a top travel destination. The addition of the Victoria-Puerto Vallarta route is expected to contribute positively to the local economy, supporting hotels, restaurants, and other tourism-related businesses in the region.

As Puerto Vallarta prepares to welcome more visitors from Canada, local authorities and businesses are gearing up to provide an unforgettable experience that showcases the best of what this Mexican coastal city has to offer. From its stunning natural beauty to its rich cultural heritage, Puerto Vallarta remains a favored destination for travelers seeking both relaxation and adventure.

Sunwing’s expansion of services is a clear indication of the airline’s confidence in the strength of the Canadian market for travel to Mexico. The availability of direct flights from an increasing number of Canadian cities not only makes Puerto Vallarta more accessible but also enhances its reputation as a must-visit destination in the Mexican Pacific.
