Couldn't look at the facebook page, but I understand they will be open on October 8. Which just happens to be the date of the reopening of Pueblo
Bonito Los Cabos. Sunset Beach won't be open until the 13th.

I was out by the San Jose Del Cabo airport a couple of days ago and the control tower was still boarded up and terminal 2 is pretty trashed.

You may be be right, but the gummint is saying the airport will be open 10/8. Maybe not using the tower, but portable equipment.
BCS needs the tourist traffic to survive.

eljefe I hope you checked all the "extra" fees that Spirit has. Your "cheap" ticket may not be so cheap after all. BTW, the seats do not recline and
they charge for carry on bags too.
I flew them once, never again AND I come from an airline career background.

Spirit just got HORRIBLE reviews with the PHX ops. Extra fees, no leg room. Bad seats - don't know if that means anything for their foreign ops but I
don't go on any airlines anymore so I can't say other than what is reported.

Apart from flying Volaris out of TJ, Spirit is the best deal around to Los Cabos Cliffy. Even w/the baggage fees.

Even though I just booked it a few days ago, looks like the flight is cancelled on spirit. No flights until November.
As to flying on Spirit. Yes they do kind of suck. But you just have to play the game. Don't pick a seat. Don't carry bags, just your personal item
that fits under seat. And be willing to sit with your knees wedged in for one hour and fifty minutes. For 120 bucks a leg I could stand on my head for
that long. I would not fly Spirit on a long flight unless I paid their extras, at least the 18 dollar pick your seat fee. Easy for me to fly with no
baggage since all my stuff is already down there. So it works for me
No b-tchin\' in the Baja.

Here is a website for all Airport Codes.
http://www.world-airport-codes.com/mexico/los-cabos-internat...
IATA codes are normally three letters.
ICAO Codes are normally four letters.
SJD is Los Cabos International Airport, it is a IATA code.
MMSL is for the Cabo San Lucas and it is a ICAO code.
SJDC is really not an official airport codes but most people in the area understand what one means when using SJDC.
SJC is San Jose, California
SJO is San Jose, Costa Rica
Have fun looking up different airports! |

Just posted on our facebook group the announcement that Los Cabos airport will now reopen on October 3rd. AeroMexico is already booking flights into
Cabo out of Mexico City for the 3rd. Expect for the US carriers to start adding in flights quickly...
