Experience with AeroCalafia?


Hola Amigos,

Has anyone taken the flight from TJ to Loreto on AeroCalafia? If so, what are your impressions? Can you get your visa at the airport in TJ or do you get in Loreto?

Used to drive when I lived in San Diego but I'm in Colorado now and it's a little more challenging. Thanks!

Haven't taken that route, but we flew Calafia from Los Moches to La Paz in a 13 passenger Cessna. Good experience and nice to fly so low. Great views.

You get your FMM at Tijuana... border or airport. The details have been posted here. Use the search button at the top left of the page if nobody responds with more details about getting it at the airport.

We flew Calafia from Guaymas to Santa Rosalia last year they were great.



What we see depends mainly on what we look for.

Thank you for your feedback! When I take the trip on AeroCalafia I will post my experience!

I moved to Colorado from San Diego so I'm trying to find alternative ways to get to Mulege other than driving.

thanks much,

Aero Calafia flies from Hermosillo to Guaymas and then to Santa Rosalia. I dont think you would even have to get off the plane.

Have you looked for flights from Denver to Hermosillo? Probably expensive but they probably exist, thru Phoenix.

Do it. With family in San Diego while we live in Loreto, best way to go.

Aero calafia


I fly the TIJ /LTO/TIJ flights about 8 times a year. Great service and currently $123 one way. The only problem I have is booking the flight online. I usually book by phone through their Cabo office. Rather time consuming but filling out their online forms and then not getting it to complete due to a credit card acceptance issue is frustrating. Anyone got a tip on how to get a reservation easier? The Volaris shuttle from downtown San Diego to TIJ airport and vice versa is also great.

I have had the same problem with trying to book online and I do the same thing you do (call the Cabo office). The only thing that makes things a little quicker is if you have them give you a number that is assigned to your profile in their system; that way you don't have to go through the rather painstaking process of providing the correct spelling of your name, address, etc. Instead, you just give them the dates you want and your profile number.

Thank you very much for that info. I ask for the same girl (Mary Mancillas) every time and she speaks decent English and remembers me but we go through the same 20 minute ordeal every time.

I bought a round trip ticket Tijuana - Loreto today at the AeroCalafia office in Loreto, and it was a piece of cake.
I would like to get in touch with somebody who has experience in getting from the airport in San Diego to the airport in Tijuana, and back. Not a shuttle from the airport in TJ to downtown SD, but airport to airport for one making connections from the East Coast.
