    Ummmm why? Interest rates go higher in times of inflation which cost borrowers, big and small, more money.

    Wow. I hadn't heard this before. If true... so sad. In the States or Canada that taxi driver would likely be charged with involuntary manslaughter and would certainly be facing a wrongful death civil suit.

    American Airlines Monopoly on Cozumel

    The vast majority of total fuel burn is in cruise. Taxiing & takeoff are next and landing burns relatively little with thrust set at, or close to, idle for around 30 minutes on the glideslope down to the runway. Obviously short flights are going to skew the numbers and will cost more person (in...

    American Airlines Monopoly on Cozumel

    That cost delta is much smaller than what I usually see, but I filter out any flights that have more than 1 stop. Still, using your example, the flight from YYZ to CZM is around 1600 miles as the crow flies. DFW to CZM is around 1000 miles. The flight is 60% further from Toronto and yet...

    American Airlines Monopoly on Cozumel

    Toronto Pearson (YYZ) has some of the highest airport fees in the world and our taxes aren't world renowned for being low either. If anything, these would only serve to increase the cost of the flight vs. decrease it and yet our fares to CZM and CUN are consistantly much lower than if our flight...

    American Airlines Monopoly on Cozumel

    As someone who regularly flies YYZ (Toronto) <> CZM, I'm amazed at how much cheaper the fares are compared to US cities / hubs which are FAR closer to CZM than we are. Even pricing out flights on US based airlines, where we end up on the exact same airplanes into CZM, it's usually hundreds less...

    American Airlines Monopoly on Cozumel

    It adds close to $300 pp and only works if you can line up your arrival with their departure times. Otherwise, way faster and cheaper to take the ferry. They have a flight out of CUN at noon (to early) and don't have another till 5pm (too late).

    Wouldn't be anything more than pocket change to Xcaret.

    At this point, the wind isn't predicted to be strong enough to close the port on Thursday.

    MESS AT COZUMEL AIRPORT

    For me it depends. I'll look at the departure schedule for the day and how many flights are leaving close to mine. Two hours is usually where I end up but I have arrived three hours before and have been glad that I did. Saturdays are always going to be the busiest day.

    MESS AT COZUMEL AIRPORT

    Technically, they do. They have slots for a reason. Now, if you'd written airports have little or no control over planes which end up being delayed such that a bunch all arrive at the same time... then I'd be on board.

    Are you her dad or her mom? If you're dad, am afraid that it will be a real challenge to ever burn less air that your daughter, assuming you both maintain similar levels of diving experience. Women cheat - they are born with a set of gills, I'm sure of it. 😜

    Trip Report Cozumel diving and photos March 2024

    You aren't missing anything. It's often extremely crowded with people picking them up and taking them out of the water for selfies. Not to mention using the time in the water for bio breaks. Imagine the harm that does to them over time.
