Hey MulegeMichael- if I read your email correctly I think you saw the caravan on Monday the 22nd just North of Bahia Concepcion. Any idea if they stay
2 or 3 days at Concepcion? Thanks. Ron

Hey, Ron. Currently at Santispac 'till Thurs AM. Then to Rivera del Mar in Loreto for 2 days.
Had a rip roaring party at Ana's last nite. Bob did a great job on the music. We crawled back across the lot. Feel like road kill this morning. Why
those tire marks on my back??? 
PS: HI to all those we pass on the hiway!!!

Am I Reading This Right?

If you've had fish tacos at Juan Carlos y Bertha's across from Burro you'd know why.
Good luck with the caravan. See you on the beach. |
An 800 mile round trip to pick up relatives?

Sounds like a good enough excuse to make the trip to me.

Yes, but is the Loreto airport that expensive and/or inaccessible from elsewhere?

In a word YES.
Two year's ago I priced a RT ticket from SD to Loreto......$850
Cabo was about $250 then.
Flying into Loreto for Southern California folks is just ridiculous.

Wow! $250? To Cabo? That's a rare price these days. Maybe in the middle of summer.

Re Cabo to pick up relatives.
Yes, I was expecting to be at the East Cape by then/now but love Playa Coyote enough to make the trip. It was a good opportunity to stock up at Costco
and pick up a simple solar kit for the beach here. The driving is over with now and we're back to enjoying the beach and avoiding the internet I'll be down to the East Cape once the water is warm enough for cold-averse
snorkeling.
Saw the caravan roll by the other day when we were going the opposite direction. Have fun guys!

The fare for flying into Loreto from the US is outrageous.
But that's what you get when you're the only game in town.
Compare those fares to a fare I just booked with Volaris in April, R/T La Paz- Guadalajara for below $140.00 and gouging is obvious.

There's a catch-22 with Loreto. I have to believe that since only one airline is servicing Loreto from LA, using regional jets and not flying daily,
that there just isn't all that much demand for the service. Alaska/Horizon is fairly savvy about such things, and if there was any sort of equivalence
between lower fare and increased demand, they'd do something about it, whether flying larger planes or more frequent service. That said, if there
really was unserviced demand, wouldn't you think that Volaris would enter the market? Gonna get interesting, assuming the Villa Group project gets to
the point of occupancy. They need traffic to sell time shares.
