The governor of BCS, Carlos Mendoza Davis recognized the solidarity of companies such as Volaris, “who listen to the powerful and inspiring message that we give to Mexico and the world that there is another here, that by working together and with direction we can continue to advance to the best future that South Californians deserve ”.

The governor reported that Baja California Sur has approximately 70% of its economy linked to tourism, so this campaign, which consists of the airline launching 89 thousand seats with a 20 percent discount (with the VLMX code) on all routes that operates in the airports of La Paz, Los Cabos and Loreto, to travel from October 13 to December 31, 2020, buying from October 13 to 15, 2020 is relevant for the primary and secondary activities of the state.
