- I don't know about Greyhound, but there are hundreds of travel agencies
- in Vancouver. Pick up a copy of the Vancouver Sun or The Provence for
- last-minute discounts. There are plenty of flights from Vancouver Airport
- to Mexico.
-
- The Student Travel Office is called TravelCuts. They claim to have the
- cheapest tickets, but this is not always true. Last-minute flights
- can be a lot cheaper than the tickets TravelCuts offers.
- Some addresses:
- TravelCuts
- Downtown Office 501-602 W Hastings, phone: 681-9136
- Simon Fraser University campus on Burnaby Mountain, phone: 291-1204
- UBC branch: student union building, UBC boulevard, phone: 822-6890

- Good luck

- PS if you have time, spend some time in Vancouver, North-America's most
- beautiful city!
