YYC or YEG - MEX $114 + OW routing through YVR
Need to do something about the fuel surcharges though!
Base fare is slightly higher, but other fees make it cheaper:
Departing Flight (Tango Plus)
114.00
Returning Flight (Tango Plus)
114.00
Options 0.00
Taxes, fees, charges and surcharges 333.28
Grand Total - Canadian dollars $561.28

We've hit the era of Ryan Air / Easy Jet where the fees are much much more than the ticket itself...

I'm sure you can get into trouble in Mexico City, just like anywhere, but if you follow standard tourist recommendations found in current guidebooks, it's highly unlikely you will have problems. One of my favorite places to visit, anywhere in the world.

I just meant with regard to the abductions and drug turf wars.

Hopes of what? My T+ flight yow-yyz return this week was 535$ with a 20% off coupon. I believe 550$ isnt to shaby. Sure the surcharges are crazy but then again they are on the domestic side as well!

Those things aren't generally happening in Mexico City.
I had a couple GREAT trips to MEX last year thanks to the CM mistake fare (~$260a/i from NYC via PTY in 150% EQM credit class). I suppose I could have gotten in trouble in some of my dining choices, but I did quite well in the end.

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.
