Getting There

FLIGHTS

You will fly into Puerto Vallarta International Airport (PVR), and flights for May of 2026 will start coming out in July of 2025.

While the room does have to be booked through the travel agents, you are more than welcome to book flights on your own and any use points, miles, etc., that you might have.

Please also note that your plane ticket must match the name on your passport EXACTLY.

Our travel agents, Jess & Jayme, are here to answer any questions regarding flights.

PASSPORTS

Blue Passports BOOKS are REQUIRED for travel to Mexico. If you attempt to use a passport card or any other combination of IDs for international air travel, you will be denied entry into Mexico.

If your passport needs to be renewed, or if you will be getting your passport for the first time, it would be best to start that process ASAP so that if you encounter any issues you have plenty of time to sort them out.

First time and renewal applicants can find the mail in forms needed at this link: 

https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/how-apply/forms.html

 

You can also now renew your passport online without mailing anything in. This is ONLY for renewals and if you meet the qualifications. Please note for online renewal, they ONLY offer regular service speed, you cannot choose expedited service:

If you have any questions regarding passports, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Jess & Jayme!


The Room Block

Ashlee + McCall have secured a room block for their guests at Dreams Bahia Mita. Your $200 deposit will be considered your “Yes” RSVP!

There is a 3 night minimum for all wedding groups stays at Dreams Bahia Mita, and please note that this resort requires that all guests attending the wedding stay on property and book into the couple’s room block. Guests who book outside of the room block will be charged an additional fee per person by the resort to attend the wedding events.

When we use the term “Room Block,” we are referring to a group of rooms that are being held for a group with a certain locked in rate.

Booking within the group also protects you from an oversold resort situation - it does happen just like it happens on airlines - they sell extra rooms in order to account for anticipated cancellations, but sometimes this can result in guests being moved to another hotel. Booking into the group protects you from that happening in this situation. Please also note that booking into the room block comes with our agency services at no additional cost to you. We are here for pre-travel support as well as in travel support and assistance and/or guidance in case of any kind of travel emergency. If you choose to book outside the block and not through Here and Away Travel, we are unable to assist with any aspect of your travel, during-travel support, or travel emergencies.

What a room block is not:

A room block is not a PHYSICAL block of space being held all together for a group. With people checking in and out at different times, booking into different rooms categories (some of which are only in certain buildings), etc., it would be impossible for the resort to put everyone in every group in the same buildings. We can request for your room to be near another room, but please note that these are requests only and cannot be guaranteed. If you need to guarantee being near another room, we suggest booking a suite with those guests.

Follow the link below to see pricing and information on the room options that Ashlee + McCall are holding in their room block.


HOW TO BOOK

Ashlee + McCall have organized a room block for all of their wedding guests. In order to be considered a part of the wedding group, you must book your rooms using our room reservation form. Those who book sooner will have a greater selection of rooms!

Room deposits must be made by November 1st, 2025. Final payments will be due on or before December 15th, 2025.

STEP ONE: To reserve your room, please fill out the following form to get started!

Please note that only one person from each room should fill out the form, but you will need all guests’ information to proceed.

Booking Process:

You will just have to put down a $200 deposit to hold your room, and you may make interest free payments at any time. Please note that if you purchase travel insurance, this is due at the time of deposit as well.

You will fill out the room reservation form, and then we will send you an invoice that you will approve to make sure everything is correct for your stay.

Once we receive that, we will make your deposit. Nothing will be charged to your card until you sign the invoice approval.

Any time you would like to make a payment, you will just request a link from the travel agents that will be sent over and you can make the payment for any amount you would like.

AIRPORT TRANSFERS

Round Trip Airport - Hotel Transfers (From PVR to Dreams Bahia Mita)

When filling out the reservation form, please add in your transportation:

Group Shared round trip transfers are $180 per room for up to 4 people traveling on the same flight.

This pricing can be adjusted later if people in different rooms want to share once we have everyone's flight details - just note that to share a transfer everyone must be on the exact same flight. We are also happy to get you a quote if you have more than 4 guests on the same flight.

Flight details must be submitted 60 days prior to travel.

It is very important to pre-arrange transportation to and from the hotel. Taxi services at the airport are expensive, unreliable, and inconvenient to have to deal with after a flight.

INSURANCE + CANCELLATIONS

ALL RESERVATIONS IN THE GROUP ARE FULLY NON-REFUNDABLE AFTER DECEMBER 15TH, 2025 WITHOUT INSURANCE.

Here and Away Travel STRONGLY recommends that you purchase travel insurance, especially when traveling internationally.

We highly recommend travel insurance not only to protect the investment on your trip (many deposits and payments with group blocks are non-refundable if you do not), but also to protect you if something unexpected happens and you need medical attention or have to go to the hospital in Mexico. Most US insurance companies don't cover anything that happens outside of the USA, which can leave you with HUGE bills that would not be reimbursed unless you have medical coverage for your trip. (Also please note, the hospitals in Mexico will not allow you to leave until ALL bills have been paid.) Please note that Here and Away Travel cannot help you recoup any financial losses that arise in the case that you do not purchase travel insurance.

CANCELLATIONS:

We know that most things that come up that would cause you to have to cancel your trip are unexpected and that most people think they will never use their travel insurance. The fact is, most won’t have to use it and we hope you never do. But travel insurance isn’t for those “most times.” It’s for the times that something unexpected comes up before or during travel - illnesses, last minute work obligations, sudden financial stresses, injuries during travel, etc. The last thing we want is for something incredibly stressful to be going on and then on top of it, you are out thousands of dollars in travel costs or medical expenses because you did not purchase insurance. Please note that not refunding costs after the date of December 15th, 2025 is not our policy, it is the resort’s group policy and they do not budge.

PLEASE we beg you to consider travel insurance so that you are financially protected in all scenarios.
