Flair takes off for Mexico City with new routes from YVW and YYZ

VANCOUVER — Flair Airlines has expanded its international network with the launch of direct service to Mexico City from Oct. and Toronto.

The first flights departed Oct. 27 from Vancouver International Airport (YVR) and Oct. 28 from Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) to Mexico City International Airport (MEX), connecting Canadian travellers to Mexico’s bustling capital at an affordable price point.

Gate events were held at all three airports to celebrate the milestone. Said Maciej Wilk, CEO of Flair Airlines: “We’re making it easier for Mexicans to explore Canada and for Canadians to discover Mexico – it’s what affordable, modern aviation is supposed to do. This route is a major win for our customers. We’re proud to expand our international network and make meaningful connections more accessible for all.”

Julián Adem Díaz de León, Consul General of Mexico in Vancouver, said he is thrilled to welcome Flair’s new nonstop flights. “These routes strengthen the deep ties between our countries, connecting our families, businesses, and cultures, and open new doors for travel and collaboration between Mexico and Canada.”

The schedule is as follows:

From To Start Date Depart Arrive Days Lowest Starting Fare
YVR MEX Oct 27 17:10 23:45 Mon, Fri, Sun $191 CAD
MEX YVR Oct 28 00:45 05:55 Mon, Tue, Sat $205 CAD
YYZ MEX Oct 28 20:15 23:45 Tue, Thu, Sat $160 CAD
MEX YYZ Oct 29 00:45 07:25 Wed, Fri, Sun $180 CAD

Flair’s service to Mexico City is supported by its industry-leading reliability and Canada’s only On-Time Guarantee. Plus, with the launch of Flair FWD, passengers who purchase Flair Express have the added benefit of not having their baggage proactively sized.
