I took the plunge for my upcoming birthday and booked the $114 YYC-YVR-MEX flights and yes, after a horrendous fuel surcharge and taxes the total was $568.12.

I have noticed that those weasels at AC head office don't assign the hefty fuel surcharge to ZIH, SJD, CUN or PVR...just MEX.

It my SSWU burn coming up.

I wish we felt the same.. we've delayed our visit to Mexico because of the increased Canadian tourist deaths.. would like to visit Fairmont Mayakoba on the Mayan Riviera sometime.. and the Pyramids of Egypt for that matter.
