Cancun is home to one of the fastest-growing airports in the Caribbean, and the Mexican Caribbean hotspot is getting even more flights this winter. 

United Airlines is ramping up its service to Cancun, with plans to offer more than 200 flights each week to Cancun from a total of eight different cities in the United States. 

That includes daily flights from Cleveland, along with upgraded service on its Boeing 777 widebody aircraft out of Chicago.
