The route draws resort travelers, sport fishing groups, destination wedding parties, and weekend escapes from Southern California. December through April is peak Cabo season. Same-day round trips are practical given the short flight time.

Cabo operates on Mountain Time. A noon departure from San Diego arrives at approximately 2pm local. A full afternoon on the resort or at the marina remains after arrival.

A round-trip booking keeps the same aircraft for both legs and, depending on the length of your trip, can save 10% to 20% compared with booking two separate one-ways, though not always.

Note: Prices shown are starting round-trip prices for a three-day trip, out on day one and back on day three. Longer stays, dates and demand change the price, and your quote is one all-in price.

Aircraft category is the primary price driver. Midsize jets are the best value on this route for most groups. The 702-nautical-mile distance does not require the additional cabin volume of a heavy jet for most travelers.

Peak season in Los Cabos runs December through April. New Year's Eve, Spring Break, and the holiday period between Christmas and New Year are the highest-demand windows. Booking 2 to 3 weeks ahead of any peak period is advisable.

No US Federal Excise Tax applies on this international route. Mexican government fees and handling costs are all known at booking time and are included in the Hogani Jets all-in price.

Rancho Santa Fe, La Jolla, and Del Mar clients for whom McClellan-Palomar Airport (KCRQ) is the correct departure, a dedicated private aviation facility with no commercial traffic.

Empty legs surface regularly on this corridor, particularly on Sunday afternoons when aircraft position back to San Diego after Cabo weekends. Peak holiday periods generate the most frequent availability.
