TravelCo FYI:

🇲🇽🚨 TRAVELLING TO MEXICO WITH KIDS? HERE'S AN IMPORTANT UPDATE!

If you're planning a family vacation to Mexico, there's a new law to keep on your radar!

On October 7, 2026, Mexico's Senate approved changes to its General Tourism Law that will require tourism providers to verify an adult's relationship or legal authority when travelling with a minor.

❤️ WHAT'S THE REASON FOR THIS CHANGE?

The goal is to strengthen protections for children and help prevent exploitation and abuse.

📅 WHEN DOES IT TAKE EFFECT?

The legislation has been approved by the Senate and sent to Mexico's federal executive branch for promulgation. As of this update, a confirmed implementation date has not been announced.

📄 WHAT DOCUMENTS SHOULD FAMILIES CONSIDER BRINGING?

Until more details are clarified, being prepared is a good idea. Consider bringing:

✅ Your child's birth certificate showing the parents' names.

✅ Custody or legal guardianship paperwork, if applicable.

✅ A parental consent letter if your child is travelling with one parent, grandparents, or another adult.

⚠️ PLEASE NOTE: These are precautionary suggestions, not a confirmed list of documents accepted under the new legislation. We are still waiting for further guidance about implementation and documentation requirements.

🌴 DOES THIS ONLY AFFECT CANCUN?

The change is to Mexico's federal tourism law, so it isn't just a Cancun-specific update. The exact requirements and how they will be implemented still need clarification.

❤️ SHOULD YOU PANIC ABOUT YOUR UPCOMING VACATION?

No need to panic or cancel your plans! For now, stay informed, keep your family's travel documents organized, and check for updates before departure.

As a travel advisor, I'll continue sharing information as more official details become available!

Westjet Baggage PSA

Updated baggage fees in effect
As part of an ongoing review of our cost management strategy and in alignment with global conditions, we have updated our baggage fee structure. The following changes apply to bookings made on or after April 23, 2026:

• A $5 increase to the first and second pre-paid checked baggage fees
• A $10 increase to the first and second checked baggage fees when paid at the time of airport check-in
• A $50 increase to excess, overweight and oversized baggage fees

Bookings made before April 23, 2026, will be subject to previous baggage fee amounts. If your clients booked before this date and are charged the higher amount, they will need to speak with a Customer Service Agent at the airport to have the baggage fee amount adjusted.

WestJet Rewards members with Teal status will continue to receive a $5 discount on their first pre-paid checked baggage fees. To do so, their WestJet Rewards ID must be added to the booking and they must pre-pay for baggage post-booking via Manage Trips up to 24 hours before flight departure. Silver, Gold and Platinum members remain eligible for their complimentary checked baggage allowance based on tier status.

Don't pack just yet....
We are putting together a small group to
Riu Palace Pacifico, Nuevo Vallarta. 5* Adult Only

Just an 8-minute walk to Bucerius.... one of my highlights.

It's for next fall but we have found the securing our spots early and travelling in Nov. have been the most economical way to go.

Departs Nov 22-Dec 6, 2026

Junior Suite $3268 pp
Partial Ocean View $3448 pp
Junior Suite OV $ 3648 pp

We took a group here a while ago and it was suggested this may have been our best hotel we have ever done as a group, and most of you know we have done many. That was in 2024. So, a few asked to do it again, and here we are.
Everything at this hotel was above and beyond our expectations. It had just undergone a remodel, and it was amazing.

We are only having 12 people in the group, 8 are already confirmed. We only have 4 seats left and wanted to offer it on the TravelCo site.

The pricing already includes a $200 pp group discount offered by Sunwing.

To book in, you will need a $150 pp deposit and of course whatever insurance you choose for the trip. Seats will be available later.
Balance of payment will not be due till Sept 15, 2026.

If you are interested, Call Marla to reserve your space. With only 4 seats available, it will be first come first served as usual.

Everyone is looking forward to returning to this hotel...

Hi everyone... has been a while.

We have limited seats available for this lil group getaway....

Riu Ventura Cancun 5 *
Jan 26, 2026, for 1 week.
Ocean Front Room $2358 pp

This is a small group we are taking, and we have a few seats left.
The hotel is opening Dec 3, 2025, so we will be going to a new hotel. They will have some time to iron out the kinksof the opening and then we are there.

We expect this hotel to be amazing and believe it will be much more costly than this in the future.
