How a family of 4 can get to Cancun for $185 roundtrip after tax (per person)

So AirCanadaVacations.com just dropped the price of their June 18 to 25 flight from Calgary to Cancun, Mexico down to $306 roundtrip after tax. Pretty great price right?

Well here's where it gets really interesting. With this deal, children only pay the tax. This is highly unusual, as on most flights children usually pay full fare, same as an adult.


But try 2 adults, and 2 children over at AirCanadaVacations.com from June 18 to 25 from Calgary to Cancun, Mexico and this is what you'll see:


$740 roundtrip after all taxes/fees for all 4 flights! That's $185 per ticket.

A family of 5 can get it down even further, to $160ish. Octomom could get an even better deal.

Update: Looks like the age cutoff for paying the 'tax only' is 12 and under.

    Just tried June 18-25 and the price does look to be higher now - works out to $225/person after tax for 2 adults / 2 children at the moment.

    June 19-26 is the same price. Still a pretty amazing price per person, although not as attractive as $185 obviously!

    I can't find anything anymore. Do the deals really go that past? Where's the $225/person one?

    Hi Monika,

    They definitely can go very quickly. I don't think most people realize just how fast the world of travel prices moves these days.
