Flights to Cancum, Mexico

Hi

I was wondering if i could get a bit of help.

I have done a few searches on the internet and can't seem to find much information on what I am looking for.

We are looking to book our honeymoon to Mexico and are ideally looking for direct flights from Glasgow or Manchester to Cancun and want to fly premium economy but can't seem to find any direct flights.

Do they exist or am I not searching in the right places?

    You must not be searching in the right places?

    I just did a quick search on travel republic and there are flights from Manchester to Cancun. They seem cheap as well, though I did put in January dates, so its probably becuase there less than a weeks notice!!!

    Jeezo, i knew this would end up happening and I would end up looking like an idiot haha!

    I'll have a look on Travel Republic, i dont know if it's maybe because i'm looking in the "off peak season" that maybe there are less flights but hardly any flights seem to be direct unless going from London. Thanks for your help!

    Oh that sounds promising. I hadn't initially considered Thomson as my initial preference was Virgin or BA but that is worth a look, thanks!

    Thomas Cook and Thomson fly direct from both Manchester and Glasgow.

    I'm not sure if Thomas Cook still offer premium economy though.

    We chose to fly to Cancun via Miami, stayed overnight in MIA at an inexpensive but quite nice hotel and flew on to CUN the next morning. It was a very relaxed journey, worked well for us. It cost the same as a direct flight

    Thanks to you both, i noticed that there is a Miami stopover but hadn't really thought of that as being a bonus but might give it a bit more thought.
