Mexicana Suspends All Flights

UPDATE TO MY EARLIER POST ABOUT MEXICANA AIRLINES SUSPENDING FLIGHTS TO CANADA

Grupo Mexicana has now officially suspended all flights on its three airlines: Mexicana Airlines, MexicanaClick and MexicanaLink. Canadians holding tickets can apply for refunds on the Mexicana website. Updated news is also available through Twitter.

Continental Airlines, which I flew on recently to Mexico City, has extensive service to Mexico from several Canadian cities. Their in-flight service is not nearly as enjoyable as Mexicana's was, but Continental offers some very good fares, especially if you book flights at least one month in advance. And of course Air Canada and WestJet still fly to Mexico. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Mexicana will be able to sort out its financial problems and resume service to Canada.
