Cabo San Lucas sits at the southern tip of Mexico’s Baja California Peninsula. Known for its beaches, clear waters, and lively town, it has become one of Mexico’s top destinations.
In April, Southwest Airlines made it easier than ever to visit. The airline now offers daily nonstop flights from San Diego to Cabo San Lucas. Our Co-Publishers Danitza and Esteban Villanueva, along with Manager of Corporate Community Affairs Lidia S. Martinez and local community leaders, joined the inaugural flight. With one-stop check-in and just a two-hour flight, the trip was smooth and stress-free.
