Charter flights from Cd. Juarez, Chihuahua will once again make their way to Puerto Peñasco this summer, bringing with them a number of visitors to the area. Javier Muñoz, Director of the local Convention and Visitors Bureau (OCV), recently confirmed that for a third consecutive year the State Tourism Office, along with the OCV, have arranged with Viva Aerobus to operate the flights. There will be 10 scheduled round-trip flights between July 10 – August 11. Each plane, Muñoz furthered, is expected to bring in about 145 people and he anticipates each flight will be full. The charters will fly into the Mar de Cortes International Airport (near Mayan Palace) and then passengers will be transported into town, settling into accommodations at seven area hotels (or rental providers): SeaSide, RPR, Peñasco del Sol, Playa Bonita, Laos Mar, Las Palomas, or the Hotel Paraíso del Desierto.

The successful charter flight program has been a welcome addition to tourism in Puerto Peñasco over the past three years. While this summer charters to Puerto Peñasco are only expected to fly in from Cd. Juarez, in the past these flights have included routes from Queretaro (in central Mexico) and Tijuana. These flights, along with an uptick in the number of tourists visiting Puerto Peñasco in the summer by car, have contributed to making the school vacation period yet another “high season” for Puerto Peñasco hotels.
