Flair Air added nonstop flights from Vancouver to Guadalajara, Mexico to their schedule starting at the end of May 2024.
Yeah, it’s Flair. But it is always nice to see a new route, especially one not being served by anyone else in Canada. It can get old watching airlines add yet *another* flight to Cancun.
Flights from Vancouver to Guadalajara (GDL) haven’t been seen in almost 20 years (since 2004).
Flair sometimes drops their base prices for these flights down to as low as $247 CAD roundtrip. Add about $100 roundtrip to Flair’s prices for a more realistic price with a piece of carry-on luggage.
Booking with Flair comes with risk. They’ve been known to drop routes without warning. If a flight is cancelled or delayed they usually don’t have an alternative way of getting you to your destination (many routes only have flights 2-3 times a week).
A little about Guadalajara
Guadalajara is Mexico’s second largest city and the capital of Jalisco, the state that is the home of mariachi, tequila, and Mexico’s most popular soccer team (Guadalajara Chivas).
Some of Guadalajara’s most famous sites are churches and basilicas, but they’re also known as Mexico’s Silicon Valley. Tortas ahogadas, birria, and jericalla are their most famous foods.
UPDATE: November 27 to Dec 4 is currently available for $256 to $356 roundtrip.
