No Caribbean destination has seen strong airlift growth amid the pandemic than Cancun, and now the Mexican Caribbean hotspot is set for another relaunch from Canada. 

In December, Sunwing will resume flights from Waterloo International Airport to Cancun, with service set to begin Dec. 13. 

The relaunched route will operate once weekly on Mondays, with service running through April 18, 2022. 

“We’re excited to be returning to the Region of Waterloo International Airport for our 11th season,” said Andrew Dawson, President of Tour Operations for Sunwing. “Service from the region has been consistently well received for over a decade and we’re sure that residents of the surrounding area will enjoy being able to head to paradise safely under our wing.”

It’s part of a broader Caribbean relaunch for Sunwing this winter.
