If you are able to fly out from Toronto, we recommend flying with Aeromexico with 1 stop over in Mexico City. (easy to book at aeromexico.com)
If you are flying from anywhere else, we recommend you fly to Mexico City and join the group for the second flight (from Mexico City to Manzanillo).
In view of the detrimental effect of flying on the environment, we would like to encourage you to consider purchasing carbon offsets for your flight. There are many ways of doing this, including through some airlines when you purchase your ticket, and through independent organizations. Molly and Norman are donating to an organization based in Switzerland with high standards, www.myclimate.org, that has a calculator to tell how much carbon your fight is producing, and how much to offset it. Please note that the David Suzuki Foundation recommends NOT using tree planting to offset. Thanks for your support for our environment.
