Alaska Is Affordable Adventure

Fly Alaska from LAX to Mexico and Costa Rica

What do you think of a quick trip to Mexico for a new adventure? From LAX, Alaska Airlines flies to almost every place in Mexico and is known for low fares. Cabo San Lucas is calling! Alaska's got low airfares from LAX, including non-stop, so we can get to our cocktail-in-a-coconut faster! Did you hear about the crazy bungee jump they have there? You take a ride out to a suspension gondola with a glass floor, and then plunge into the canyon on a bungee. You might need a cool sangria after that adrenaline rush! Preferably while lounging by the warm, bright blue sea at sunset. Puerto Vallarta is another option. Sea exploration is a must at Los Arcos National Park, an underwater eco-preserve filled with parrot fish, angelfish, butterfly fish, and turtles—it’s one of Puerto Vallarta's best snorkeling spots! After being under water, try flying overhead! There's an awesome zipline in the Sierra Madre Mountains that goes for 2 miles across the jungle and over the river. That's getting a bird's–eye view! Speaking of birds, Alaska now has all new non-stop fights to Costa Rica! From LAX, you can fly Alaska direct to both San José and Liberia/Guanacaste. So after Mexico this summer, plan a winter trip to tropical Costa Rica. Alaska's low fares make adventure affordable!

Want an instant vacation? Alaska makes it easy with their all-inclusive vacations to Mexico.

ADVENTURES CLOSE TO HOME: Alaska makes flying within California a cinch! Hop a flight to Mammoth Lakes (aka the Eastern Gateway to Yosemite) and Sonoma County (aka wine country!).
