WestJet’s low-cost carrier, Swoop, has completed its newest Mexico flight launches.

The carrier officially began operating its new route from Abbotsford International Airport in Canada to Mazatlan International Airport.

The new service comes after Swoop launched three other new routes this month: new flights to Cancun and Puerto Vallarta out of Hamilton, Ontario, along with service from Abbotsford to Puerto Vallarta.

“Mexico is a popular travel destination for Canadians, with over 1.9 million visitors annually,” said Karen McIsaac, Senior Advisor of Communications at Swoop. “This additional route to Mazatlán complements our Cancun and Puerto Vallartadestinations as top choices to frequent and is the perfect opportunity for travellers to experience choice when it comes to affordable air travel.”

The new Mazatlan flights are running twice per week on Thursdays and Sundays.

Flights from Abbotsford to Puerto Vallarta are running on Mondays and Saturdays, while Hamilton-Puerto Vallarta flights are running on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

The flights to Cancun are operating on Mondays, Fridays and Saturdays.
