SP Daily, if one of the major points of flying in and out of Cancun, is to capture tourists that are flying into Cancun on their way to Belize, then the price tag might not work. The reason those folks were flying into Cancun is because they are trying to save money on their travel costs. Calling them poor is wrong of course. Perhaps they are merely thrifty. If they need to be more thrifty, then they will take the bus and the daily flights will still suffer from lack of filled seats.

Many folks fly thru Cancun to avoid the US....for many reasons. In these cases the cost may not be the main issue.

I can go from Chicago to Belize City and back for what they want for this. I don't know what the cost in USD is for the bus, but I have to believe it's way better than that!

I can tell you it's one hell of a lot less than what you pay from Toronto. The bus is $50 but then you also spend all night on the road or a night in a hotel or both and then you have to water taxi or fly to San Pedro. If you're on a 10 day+ vacation no problem but if not you lose a day on both ends and now your vacation is 5 days long less 2 days travel recovery.

Maybe no one realizes that it's 6 hours by road from Cancun to Chetumal plus travel time to the island (and transfer costs to Corozal if you fly to the island).

I'll be flying through Cancun from now on when I go to visit family based on what I paid BZE to YYZ last time.
