NEW FLIGHT ROUTES ANNOUNCED TO SOME OF MEXICO'S MAJOR DESTINATIONS
December 4, 2024

New sectors of the international tourism market continue to arrive in Mexico, thanks to the commitment of various international airlines towards the expansion of Mexico’s international flight connectivity.
In Puerto Vallarta, a new route from Prague, Czech Republic, will begin operation in 2025. The tourism office has highlighted that the objective of this new weekly flight is to attract tourists from the three major cities in the Czech Republic: Prague, Brno, and Ostrava. Arriving at the Vallarta International Airport every Tuesday, these flights will be available from April 2025.
In addition to the Czech Republic, it is hoped that the new flight will attract visitors from some of the neighboring Eastern European countries, such as Germany, Slovakia, Austria, and Poland, diversifying the tourism industry in the region.
In Cancún, these efforts are beginning as well, with a new direct route from Poland to Quintana Roo, operated in tandem between the Rainbow and LOT Polish airlines opening in time for the winter season. Flights will arrive twice a week; from Warsaw on Sundays, and from Katowice on Thursdays.
Beyond the Eastern European market, Cancún will also see an increase in connectivity with the Middle East, as Qatar Airways have announced the resumption of its flight route between Doha and Mexico City, with connections to Cancún. It is hoped that this new connection will open up Quintana Roo, and Mexico as a whole, to further expansion in the Middle Eastern and Asian markets, considering that currently only 200 annual visitors are registered from the Arabic region.
These efforts are part of a larger strategy to further establish Puerto Vallarta, Quintana Roo, and the whole country as one of the premier global destinations.

Hyatt is entering the final months of 2026 with a growing collection of luxury properties across some of Mexico’s most sought-after destinations. From the Pacific coast of Baja California Sur to the Caribbean shoreline of the Riviera Maya and the cultural heart of Mexico City, the company is expanding its portfolio with distinctive properties designed around their individual settings and guest experiences. The Park Hyatt brand is at the center of this growth. Following the opening of Park Hyatt Cabo del Sol in December 2025, Park Hyatt Riviera Maya is expected to open by the end of 2026 as the brand’s first all-inclusive property worldwide. Park Hyatt Mexico City Polanco, a 155-room hotel overlooking Chapultepec Park, is expected to welcome guests in spring 2027. Together, the three properties offer very different ways to experience Mexico, from coastal escapes to an urban cultural stay. Hyatt’s expansion also includes Alila Mayakoba, which opened earlier this year within the Mayakoba complex. Set across 60 acres of beach, lagoon, and jungle, the resort combines wellness, locally inspired design, and a strong connection to the Yucatán Peninsula. Meanwhile, three new Grand Hyatt resorts—Grand Hyatt Grand Cayman, Grand Hyatt Cancun, and Grand Hyatt Los Cabos—are scheduled to open in the fourth quarter of 2026, with Cancún and Los Cabos introducing all-inclusive experiences to the Grand Hyatt portfolio. For planners, this growing portfolio creates even more possibilities for designing programs around different sides of Mexico. Whether a group is looking for a sophisticated urban experience, a secluded Caribbean setting, or the landscapes and culture of Baja, Destination Mexico can help bring these new properties together with the authentic experiences, local connections, and seamless logistics that make a program truly memorable
