The Los Cabos delegation included Grupo Velas, Marquis Los Cabos, Viceroy, Nuba DMC and the Los Cabos Tourism Board (FITURCA), showcasing the region’s top-tier offerings—from boutique lodging and gourmet cuisine to personalized, high-touch services. Beyond the main exhibition floor, brands such as Park Hyatt (which formally introduced its opening), Four Seasons, Montage, Auberge and Zadún Ritz-Carlton Reserve added even more weight to the destination’s diverse and upscale portfolio.

State Legislature Passes “Santos Law,” Creating Criminal Penalties for Injuries and Deaths Caused by Animal Attacks - The Baja California Sur State Congress has approved the so-called “Santos Law,” a new legal measure that adds criminal penalties to the state’s Penal Code for injuries or fatalities resulting from animal attacks. The legislation holds pet owners and caretakers legally accountable when an animal under their supervision harms another person, requiring them to pay damages and face criminal sanctions.

Under the reform, individuals who—through negligence, lack of control or failure to act—allow an animal to inflict harm may now be prosecuted. The offenses range from minor injuries to cases where the victim dies as a result of the attack.

The measure was advanced by the Joint Permanent Committees on Constitutional Affairs and Justice, and Ecology and Environmental Protection , and is based on two separate proposals.

The first initiative, introduced by Deputy Venustiano Pérez Sánchez , adds Article 141 Bis to the chapter on “Injuries” within the section of “Crimes Against Life and Bodily Integrity.”

The second, submitted by Deputy Erick Iván Agúndez Cervantes , incorporates Articles 134 Bis and 139 Bis to the same legal framework.

Both lawmakers argued that existing civil remedies fall short, often failing to ensure timely compensation or meaningful consequences for owners whose animals attack members of the public. They emphasized that an animal can cause anything from a wound that heals within days to a violent attack that results in death—making it necessary to explicitly include these acts in the Penal Code.

By adopting the “Santos Law,” legislators say they aim to strengthen public safety, guarantee justice for victims, and promote responsible pet ownership by making clear that owners, possessors, or anyone who acts as a guardian of an animal will face criminal liability if that animal causes harm or takes a life.

Diving Group Safely Rescued off Espíritu Santo Island - Five foreign divers were safely rescued after being reported missing near the northern tip of Espíritu Santo Island in Baja California Sur, authorities said.

According to officials, the incident unfolded yesterday when an emergency call came in reporting that a group of divers had not resurfaced as expected during a recreational outing. The alert triggered an immediate search-and-rescue response.

A helicopter from the La Paz Naval Air Base and a Defender-class patrol vessel from the local Search, Rescue and Maritime Surveillance Station were dispatched to the area. Crews conducted a coordinated search pattern and eventually located all five individuals, bringing them aboard without incident.

The divers were transported to the Fourth Naval Zone facilities, where Navy medical staff evaluated their condition. All were found to be stable, without injuries, and were able to leave on their own shortly after the examination.

Los Cabos Airport Welcomes First-Ever Direct Flight from Panama - LOS CABOS, Mexico — The Los Cabos International Airport marked a major milestone on Thursday after receiving its first direct flight from Panama City, officially launching Copa Airlines’ new route and opening an unprecedented chapter in regional air connectivity.

The inaugural flight departed Panama at 9:09 a.m. and landed in Los Cabos at 12:27 p.m., where it was greeted by airport officials, Copa Airlines representatives, and tourism leaders from Baja California Sur. The new service makes Los Cabos directly connected to Central America for the first time.

“This new route opens significant opportunities for Los Cabos,” said Francisco Villaseñor Reyes, the airport’s administrator. “Copa Airlines is creating a strategic link between the Pacific region, South America, and the Caribbean. It’s a result of strong coordination between local authorities, the Tourism Trust and the airline.”

Copa’s Panama–Los Cabos service will operate three times a week — Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays — using Boeing 737 MAX 8 and Boeing 737-800 aircraft, which can seat up to 160 passengers.

Rodrigo Esponda, managing director of the Los Cabos Tourism Trust, said the new flight is expected to boost both tourism and the local economy, noting that advance bookings from South America are already up 34% for the year.

From January to November 2025, the airport handled 6.8 million passengers, including 4.2 million international travelers — keeping Los Cabos among the busiest hubs in Mexico for foreign arrivals.

Copa Airlines CEO Pedro Heilbron said the new route strengthens regional integration. “Every new destination we add helps promote tourism, connect cultures and expand travel options across the Americas. This route makes it easier for travelers to reach one of Mexico’s top Pacific destinations while reinforcing Panama’s role as a major regional hub,” he said.

Representing the state’s tourism department, Deputy Secretary Fernando Ojeda added that the connection offers “a strategic opportunity to diversify tourism markets, attract investment and strengthen commercial ties with Central and South America.”

Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico, which operates the airport, said the launch underscores its commitment to improving air connectivity and supporting regional growth through high-quality airport infrastructure.

Los Cabos, Mexico — Los Cabos Mayor Christian Agúndez Gómez welcomed Panama’s Ambassador to Mexico, Abraham Martínez Montilla , on Wednesday in a courtesy visit aimed at strengthening diplomatic ties and exploring new opportunities for collaboration between the two regions.

The meeting, attended by members of the City Council and key municipal officials, focused on a range of shared priorities. At the top of the agenda was the launch of the new direct flight connecting Los Cabos and Panama , with its inaugural arrival scheduled for Thursday, December 4, at 12:30 p.m. Officials also discussed potential cooperation in economic development, tourism, cultural exchange and long-term regional planning.

Mayor Agúndez expressed the municipality’s full commitment to building a strategic partnership with Panama, noting that the upcoming air route could become a gateway for stronger commercial and tourism exchanges.

“Commercial and tourism exchange will bring valuable opportunities to both cities,” Agúndez said. “We’re convinced that a sister-city relationship can foster even closer ties. Los Cabos is already on the world’s radar, and these international bridges must continue to grow.”

Ambassador Martínez praised the municipal government’s openness to collaboration and highlighted the significance of the new direct route, operated by Copa Airlines , saying it could become a powerful driver for investment and visitor traffic.

“Imagining a direct air connection between Panama and Los Cabos — two destinations with major global projection — is extremely promising,” Martínez said. “There are clear logistical conditions for great things to happen.”

At the close of their meeting, both officials exchanged gifts as a gesture of goodwill and confirmed the next steps in their joint work agenda.

The official welcome ceremony for the inaugural Panama–Los Cabos flight will take place Thursday, followed by an afternoon cultural tour at Teniente José Antonio Mijares Plaza , where the local program “Origins of Los Cabos” will be presented.

The bilateral activities will continue Friday, December 5, with visits to rural communities in the northern part of the municipality, featuring livestock exhibitions and regional product displays as part of the cultural, tourism and economic exchange.

Panama–Los Cabos Route Takes Off - Three weekly flights expected to grow tourism and investment

Baja California Sur is expanding its international air network with a new flight linking Panama and San José del Cabo. The route, operated by Copa Airlines, launches Thursday, December 4, and will run three times a week — on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays — according to the state’s Secretary of Tourism and Economy, Maribel Collins.

State officials say the connection is the result of joint efforts with the Los Cabos Tourism Trust (FITURCA) to strengthen the region’s presence in Central and South American markets. Collins called the new service a strategic move to bring in more international visitors, encourage investment and expand business ties in a fast-growing region.

The launch follows the November 3 return of seasonal nonstop flights between Frankfurt and Los Cabos on Condor Airlines, which started with 285 European travelers and will continue operating through April 6.

Tourism leaders emphasize that each new air link boosts the state’s economic opportunities by widening access and creating new business for local communities.

“Connectivity is a key driver of tourism development,” Collins said. “We’ll keep forging partnerships that help position Baja California Sur — and especially Los Cabos — as a competitive, accessible and global destination.”

Trail Runners Set to Cross Baja Peninsula in “Sea to Sea” Challenge - 105-Kilometer Route From the Gulf to the Pacific

LA PAZ, Mexico — The coastal city of La Paz is gearing up to host one of Mexico’s premier trail-running events as athletes from around the world arrive to take on the “Mar a Mar” (Sea to Sea) ultramarathon from December 4–7.

The race will send 1,100 runners from at least 10 countries across the spine of the Baja California peninsula — starting in the beach town of Los Barriles on the Sea of Cortez and finishing in the Pacific resort village of Todos Santos. The rugged 105-kilometer (about 65-mile) course climbs more than 6,500 feet through the Sierra La Laguna Biosphere Reserve, including two nights of wilderness camping along the way.

City tourism director Natalia Ruffo Castaño said participants will be split into two waves — the Sierra Group (Dec. 4–6) and the Mar Group (Dec. 5–7) — to improve logistics and ensure a smooth experience on the remote route. Camps will be set up in the secluded areas of San Dionisio and Rancho La Rueda.

Ruffo praised the event as a model of responsible tourism, noting that it blends outdoor adventure with environmental stewardship and direct economic benefits for nearby rural communities.

“It’s an exemplary product — it showcases our destination while respecting natural resources and supporting local families,” she said.

Organizers say runners will get a rare, immersive look at dramatic desert-mountain scenery as they move from the warm waters of the Gulf of California to the crashing surf of the Pacific — a true sea-to-sea journey across Baja Sur.

Airbus and Volaris Fleets Grounded as Solar Activity Disrupts Flight Communication Systems - Flight schedules across the Pacific Airport Group (GAP) network are facing major disruptions after a global safety alert prompted airlines to ground Airbus A320 aircraft and install an urgent software update.

Airbus notified all operators of the A320 family to immediately update onboard software following reported communication system failures. According to technical experts, the issues appear to be linked to recent intense solar activity , which may have interfered with the aircrafts’ computer systems responsible for navigation and in-flight communication.

Low-cost carriers Viva Aerobus and Volaris , both of which operate extensively across GAP airports, said travelers should expect delays, cancellations, and schedule adjustments over the next 48 to 72 hours while the preventive measures are carried out and the aircraft are cleared to return to service.

GAP officials stressed that passenger safety remains the top priority . Airport customer-service teams will be assisting travelers on site as airlines work through the systemwide disruptions.

Passengers with upcoming flights are strongly urged to stay in direct contact with their airline for real-time updates before heading to the airport.

While airports remain open, operations are being adjusted as carriers temporarily ground affected aircraft to ensure safe flying conditions.
