Puerto Vallarta Loses Direct Volaris Link to Morelia

Effective immediately, Volaris flights to Morelia are no longer direct, causing a slight inconvenience for travelers between these two destinations.

What's Changing

On September 6, 2026, Volaris announced that all direct flights from Puerto Vallarta to Morelia will be canceled. Travelers will now have to stopover in Guadalajara or another intermediate airport to reach Morelia. This change affects both arrivals and departures.

What It Means for Residents

This shift could impact residents and expats who frequently travel to Morelia for work, family visits, or business. The extra stopover might add an hour or more to travel times, which could be frustrating for those on tight schedules. However, the good news is that the overall frequency of flights between Puerto Vallarta and Morelia remains unchanged.

Planning Ahead

For those who frequently travel between these cities, it's important to plan your routes ahead. Consider checking the latest schedules and potentially booking your tickets in advance to avoid last-minute complications. The Guadalajara stopover might be a convenient option for some, but others might prefer the extra time to explore the city.
