this just in from Loreto_Community Yahoo Group. starting July 16th, AereoCalafia will be offering round trip service between Loreto and La Paz.
flights are Fridays and Sundays; one way fare is 990 pesos. aereocalafica.com
the announcement goes on to say 'hopefully, regular flights can be negotiated between Loreto and La Paz'...it's not clear if that means more days of
the week or that the above is a trial thing or what...bajabass - 7-12-2010 at 02:36 PM
That is what we pay to go TJ-La Paz on Volaris, booked a month or more ahead. Not a real deal, and you still need a car? But, add up gas, time and
mordida, it may be a push.Bajahowodd - 7-12-2010 at 03:45 PM
Gotta agree with bb on this. Most of the folks who have, are, or will be facing the gauntlet in Cd. Constitutcion will be driving because that is
their that's their preferred mode of transit.Skeet/Loreto - 7-12-2010 at 05:26 PM
Great !! We will get rid of those Cry- Baby Whiners.

And lets face it, if you drive down to La Paz from Loreto, you are shopping, banking, dealing with legal issues, and eating out.
I can't imagine not hitting the stores when I'm there, so I need my Jeep/or Pick up to haul back all the stuff I've bought.
Homex is looking for a way to get back and forth to Mexico City without having to make that drive to La Paz from Loreto, in my opinion.
Homex has a lot of clout in Mexico and deep pockets. I understand that Homex is the largest home builder in Latin America. Maybe they can get to
Aeromexico........Paula - 7-12-2010 at 07:03 PM
Me too-- I want my car when I'm in La Paz. And by the time you get to the airport, check in, board, deplane, and get into La Paz you haven't saved a
huge amount of time.
But-- if you're flying from La Paz to the mainland you'll save a lot by not parking in the La Paz airport at about 130 pesos per day. So it may be
good for mainland commuting.kaybaj - 7-12-2010 at 07:59 PM

What we need is a fleet of Amphibious vehicles we could then just boat around CCD!
And still have a car when we got to our destinations.

I submit that seeking to circumvent mordida difficulties delaying one's travels by the process of establishing an intercoastal ferry service may be a
"push" too. wilderone - 7-13-2010 at 08:12 AM
A smart Mexican taxi driver could station himself outside of town and offer RT service into town, 1 hour limit, for $10. He could possibly earn
$80/day. The kid watching the customers' car could earn $16/day.

Here's the inaugural "washdown" given to the Aereo Calafia Cessna 208 Caravan as she taxied down Runway 16-34 to the new terminal building.
Well, it's a start! Here's hoping that an Aeromexico 737 connecting from San Diego is in Loreto's future..........

Unfortunately I can't imagine Aeromexico servicing Loreto when they don't even service San Jose out of San Diego anymore.
Ever Look at a Map and See how Far CC is from the Coast?

Aeromexico. We've flown them several times in the past two years to destinations on the mainland. My take is that after they went private, they became
too much like the US legacy carriers as far as service and amenities are concerned. JMHO

Well, once they became privatized they had to actually turn a profit. Skeet/Loreto - 7-18-2010 at 02:46 PM

What you need is a good bunch of Americans/Canadian that are not Cry Baby Whimps that think the $40 dollar Mordida in Constitution is too much!!
What has happen to all the "Good Folks" that use to come to Baja Sur????
Seems as if we only have a Bunch of Whimps that need someone to take care of the Poor Babies!!
What happened to Common Sense. the Ability to understand the "Mexico Way' >>>???

Skeet,
you need a lot more then a stent.
Better see a shrink and get that noggin' examined before it's too late.
