Are European destinations feasible from GDL?


Recommended Posts

There's a website for that:

The short answer is no for nonstop. Yes for connections via Mexico City, Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, LA. Keep Cancun in mind, as European airlines fly nonstop there and have return flights for their vacationers, too.

What NoVaDamer said!  We’ve done 3 direct flights to Europe from Cancun, we usually tack on a couple of days to hang out at the beach.  Also direct flights from Mexico City and a nice new hotel in the terminal should you want to stay over.  We like going via Cancun when we can as it’s nice way to break up a long trip.  Happy travels!

Many thanks for the website, that's a great source for flight information

Sorry but this website is wrong. There are no non stop  nor direct flights from Guadalajara to either France or Germany in the next week as shown on their graphic. They are falsely picking up a Aeromexico code-share flight flight showing as being operated by Air France as a direct flight. It actually requires a plane change in Mexico City.

For information:  There is a difference between non-stop and direct.  A direct flight can have stops before the final destination. You just don't change planes, although you might be required to exit and re-board.

There are direct flights to Paris and Frankfurt.

Those direct flights you mention are cargo flights. No passenger flights. There are no nonstop/direct passenger flights from gdl to Europe. There were plans starting one to Paris or Madrid maybe. But obviously with the pandemic these plans has been put on hold.

On a related note, the route via Cancun also works when returning from the US. We are in Playa del Carmen right now, having taken a Southwest Airlines flight (CVG-BWI-CUN) GottaGetAway fare of $100 USD. Part of SouthWest's regular fare sales.
