Couple of Quick Notes from Recent Trip

Just got back from a two week (too short) vacation and wanted to post a few items that may be of help.

I had a need for a large SUV to transport my extended family. As suggested from someone on this site, Ruben at Europcar was great to deal with. The price quoted was the price we paid, no hassle or surprises. The vehicle was in great shape and his English is perfect, which assisted in the transaction. Will definitely use them in the future.

Due to United $$$ rates on our usual direct flight from Houston, I opted for a one-stop flight with InterJet, connecting in DF. By going this route, my family of 4 saved about $1,000 USD. Additionally, my surfboard was considered a normal piece of luggage, whereas United charges $200 each way. Interjet has free beer, mixed drinks as well as a light snack. Although it made for a longer day traveling, the overall savings and treatment on the flight was worth it.

Overall, it was pretty empty at most places we went. The peso/dollar exchange made meals very economical. The military presence seems to have relaxed a bit since years passed, so I assume that is a good sign.

All in all, a great trip and will be returning ASAP.

We recently rented from Europcar in England and got a very good deal. I didn't realize they operated in Mexico as well. Thanks for the tip - we'll definitely check them out.
