Tuesday, December 19, 2023

The alluring coastline of the Costalegre region, famously dubbed Mexico's "Happy Coast," has become a hotspot for the jet-set drawn to its 238--mile stretch of unspoiled beaches, enchanting capes and bays, and luxury resorts. Situated south of Puerto Vallarta, where the jungle meets the beach, the region is currently accessible through commercial flights to PVR typically requiring several hours of driving post flight to reach key resorts and hotels. Anticipated to open in late 2024, the upcoming Chalacatepec International Airport will offer direct access to this sought-after destination. The aim is to keep operations modest, ensuring swift customs clearance for arriving passengers, allowing them to unwind on the serene beaches in no time. The airport will play a pivotal role in meeting the growing demand for the area, complemented by the launch of the highly awaited Xala. This visionary $1 billion development, spanning 3,000 acres, is set to become one of Mexico's premier destinations. The ambitious project encompasses luxury hotels, estate-style vacation homes, and a lavish 51-villa Six Senses hotel, scheduled to open its doors in 2026.

Key Points: 
  • The upswing in tourism is, in part, a result of collaborative initiatives between Jalisco's Ministry of Tourism and a variety of airlines.
  • Anticipated to open in late 2024, the upcoming Chalacatepec International Airport will offer direct access to this sought-after destination.
  • Beginning May 31, 2024, Canadian low-cost carrier Flair will revive a route last operated in 2004, providing direct service between Vancouver (YVR) and GDL.
  • This expansion not only strengthens air connectivity between Jalisco and key U.S. destinations but also marks a substantial step towards providing passengers with increased travel options and convenience.
