We finally booked our annual trip to "Z" today, Untied dropped their air fares out of Detroit to $850 and we jumped on it. So we will be there for 10 days staring March 1, 5 nights at Holiday Inn Resort, 5 days at Villa Mexicana. My 14th trip to "Z" in the past 18 years, can't wait to be back home.

Good for you. On our first trip to Ixtapa using Apple Vacations in 1999, there was a couple ahead of us in line to check in said "7 days was not enough time and they could not get 2 weeks in a row off but could do 10 days"- they had been doing 10 days a couple of years. Our 2nd trip down we understood what they were saying " 7 days is not enough time". For us it's 3 or 4 weeks together every year now.

Paulf I understand completely, our travel friends wanted to do 2 weeks this year, but we are going to Africa in May so the wife cannot get all the time off work. I just retired 2 months ago and my bride has 4 more years to work, then maybe we can do a month at a time, as you do.

Hi Bmart I also seen some lower prices, but not the flight times we like, have to pay to play with United. The shortest flight times are our preference, done the overnight in Houston didn't like it at all.

I have only had two issues in Houston, nothing to do with the TSA or customs. First issue, UA broke the plane pushing back from the gate, I think someone forgot to remove the parking blocks from the wheels? Or the bar on the push back vehicle busted loose damaging the plane, UA never told us what really happened. There was a 7 hour delay, we were given 3 different food vouchers and $150.000 flight voucher each. Second issue actually happened in Detroit the handheld barcode reader stopped working while scanning the baggage being loaded on the plane. This caused us to miss our connection in Houston causing us to overnight there, UA gave us $350.00 in vouchers. Travel insurance paid for our meals and hotel in Houston and paid us back for our hotel night we lost Ixtapa.
