I'll use Craigslist and Kiiji to advertise. Airfares are high so wondering if anyone knows of areas where its cheaper to fly to Maz and therefore I have more of a chance to rent our unit.

Thanks
Diane

I know Minneapolis has direct flights to Mazatlan and is a popular winter retreat for people trying to escape the cold.

Once owned these: FirstFairway@Walden X 2; Lawai Beach; ManhattanClub; PuebloBonitoRose; 4 South Africa--now timeshare-free
Alaska Airlines flies non-stop to Mazatlan from Los Angeles out of LAX. Seattle and Portland might be places to advertise, too, especially if your week in Mazatlan falls in the "rainy" season in the Northwest.

I'd market to Seattle and Portland, but especially Seattle. There are many people from Washington State who go to Mazatlán, it is their favorite Mexican vacation.

Another offbeat suggestion, is try Phoenix, too, because (I think) US Air travels to MZT non-stop from there.

You might try to find all the places which have non-stop flights and market to them.

I think it may be popular with Canadian's as well. I know my in-laws from Vancouver BC go to Puerto Vallarta .

Ooops... I have to laugh at myself since I forgot you were from Vancouver Diane!

But don't a lot of folks from BC & Alberta go to Mexico?
