Sunwing has added a ton of sunny destinations from Edmonton this winter

If you are looking for a break from Edmonton’s cruel, cold winters, Sunwing has just announced a huge batch of flights to sunny destinations from YEG.

Starting this month, Edmontonians can trade below-freezing temperatures for sunshine when they head to some of the most popular vacation spots in Mexico, the Caribbean and Central America this snowy season.

Sunwing says flights are returning to eight sought-after destinations including Cancun, Varadero, Puerto Vallarta and Montego Bay.
