The sun and sand of Los Cabos, Mexico will be closer than ever for eastern Ontario residents this winter.

Sunwing will be adding flight services from Ottawa for this coming winter to include a direct flight service to Los Cabos for the first time; departing Thursdays from Dec. 20, 2018 until April 11, 2019. With the addition of this new flight, Ottawa residents can look forward to 11 different flight options to reach their ideal winter escape this year.

Known for its perennially sunny and pleasant climate, Los Cabos boasts numerous opportunities for adventure. Travellers can take advantage of numerous Sunwing Experiences such as snorkelling or scuba diving, or exploring the beautiful coastal landscape on an ATV. Other popular excursions include a sailing tour of Cabo San Lucas Arch, or a visit to San Jose del Cabo; famed for its art scene.

We are delighted to be providing our customers in Ottawa with even more travel options this coming winter," said President of Tour Operations, Andrew Dawson. "Los Cabos is consistently one of our popular vacation destinations and we're sure this new service will be well received."

Sunwing is one of the country's largest travel providers to the popular Pacific Mexican destination. With the addition of the new service from Ottawa, vacationers can now access Los Cabos from 11 airports coast to coast.

"Like other Canadians, many Ottawa-Gatineau residents enjoy winter breaks to warm destinations" said Mark Laroche, Ottawa International Airport Authority President and CEO. "Sunwing's addition of Los Cabos, Mexico provides even more choice to the already diverse range of sun spots available from YOW."

Vacationers that take advantage of this new flight service could be among the first guests to experience the highly-anticipated Riu Palaca Baja California.
