While Mexican lodging opportunities range from the 1-star dives to opulent waterfront vacation rental villas, airfare has always been a concern. However, with the H1N1 scare of last winter/spring and airlines looking to fill seats, airfare from the United States to Mexico is down 25% from last fall to $392 round trip. Our estate managers in Mexico have been most proactive concerning rates and enhanced opportunities for their deluxe and luxury vacation rentals.
