Anyone know anything about the Airline that flies from Hermosillo to Sta Rosalia? I have heard some chatter about it on the Mulege Net,but cant seem to get any details. My wife wants to come down and join me for a month or so.

yes it flys out of palo verde and is about 2400 pesos round trip

the plane holds about 12 people

you need aadvance (1 week) tickets

the ticket office is near the bus station and ferry office in santa rosalia

the plane lands in guymas for a few minutes to "check in" then off to hermosillo

Thanks, and connections from the US to Hermosillo? Ideas on what makes sense. Diane will be coming from Denver....

Never mind, I answered my own question..Thanks..Simpler just Den-Lto, at about the same cost...Chuckling at my "newbie" tag...I have lived in Mulege on and off for 30 years! Now in Loma Azul...

Back in '88 I caught a ride with a private pilot from Guaymas to Punta Chivato. I remember looking down into the "crater" on tortuga island and being disappointed --- just a lot of cactus and brush. Saw a blue whale. Way WAY bigger than the biggest humpback. How short that trip is by air and how miserably long it is by motor vehicle once you leave the Bajas and enter Sonora.

Actually, the service listed by B and S doesnt fly from HMO to Santa Rosalia. Only HMO to Guerrero Negro.
