The bus might be cheaper!! Denver to San Diego, trolley to TJ, bus to Loreto. I did two cross country bus trips one summer, not so bad, met a lot of interesting people.

Also from Colorado,, we have always taken an early flight from Dnvr to LAX then Alaska Airlines direct to Loreto, gets in mid afternoon... then return the same way...but the return from LAX to Dnvr is a late one..
It has been in the same price range that you mentioned...
Gotta shop it.... on the denver leg...
You maybe too close to your time frame to get a good rate on either leg...
Good Luck..

We have never used Alaska from Denver,,,, Just from LAX to Loreto as that is the only major carrier to Loreto unless thats changed recently...
We use the early bird whoever has the best price from Dnvr to LAX... but as I said... we usually purchase further out than 3 weeks....
Again... good luck....

Have you checked out low cost flight from Denver to San Diego and then Tijuana to Loreto? You would be limited to Thursday and Sunday.

I see a r/t from DEN to LAX on Sprit Airlines for $236 departing 7/10 returning 7/17. From LAX to LTO you should find an Aeromexico flight.

If you have a friend in Loreto have him/her go to the Calafia office in Loreto and buy you a ticket. Round trip TJ to Lto is around $250 U S. It is a domestic flight so all your friend will need to provide is your name. You will have to have a photo ID to use the tickets. When you get to Loreto and TJ on the return flight you will not have to deal with customs since flights are domestic.
I've done this a couple of times with my daughter. Just have copies of the tickets sent to you electronically. No fuss no muss.

I bought a RT ticket today at Air Calfia office here in Loreto..$244 RT (TJ-LTO)..
You need to find an early flight into SD, as there is a 12 noon check-in for TJ (1:20 departure to Loreto).. plane flies Thur/ Sun each way..

Also on the net..

BEWARE of Spirit Airlines extra fees. Your carry on bag alone could end up costing you $100 extra. Please read this before you book:

This is the WORST airline I've ever flown. Please be forewarned.

And then there is 5 hours ride Cabo to Loreto, a lot of fun after a long flight.

The whole topic is funny though. No time for bus and trolley, have to work - OK, then get you credit card and buy that Denver-SAN-LTO flight that you've found. Yes, you can fly to SAN, take taxi to the border and then TJ-LTO and save maybe $100 (taxi from SAN to the border and back is expensive), and you'll have more complex itinerary to deal with.

I absolutely dare anyone to drive from SJD to Loreto in five hours. It certainly can be done in a day, but five hours is the result of someone smoking something funny. Just about as funny as buying a taxi.:lol::lol::lol::lol:

BH, it will not take full day to get from Cabo to Loreto even by bus. Used to be 8 hours, with all the scheduled stops. Maybe the road has become longer somehow...
