TUI, the leading global travel and leisure company, announced earlier this year that from June 2025, it will operate a new direct flight from Belfast International to Cancun in Mexico.
The flights will take off weekly from 24th June 2025 and provide local holidaymakers with a brand new holiday destination and a choice of over 70 hotels along the stunning Caribbean Coast for their fourteen-night holiday.
Year-round sunshine is just one of the reasons that makes this 22-kilometre stretch of Caribbean Coast a popular pick for weddings and honeymoons abroad. Throw in beachfront hotels, a Caribbean Sea backdrop and swaying palm trees, and it’s a picture-perfect place to say your vows or enjoy your relaxing honeymoon.
Whatever your budget, there’s an array of options to choose from, including premium upgrades and all-inclusive deals.

They also arrange the soundtrack for your wedding, whether it’s steel drums, a string quartet, or a live band. When you book your wedding with TUI, they connect you with the best photographers to capture your day just how you want it.

Romantic honeymoon escapes in Mexico
Once you have your TUI wedding booked—or even if you are getting married at home—make sure to explore the romantic honeymoon destinations Mexico has to offer.
Picture perfect beaches, ancient sites and a choice of resorts are just some of the reasons couples choose to honeymoon at Mexico’s Caribbean Coast.
Visit Cancun for a glamorous, urban-style experience. For those looking to escape the crowds, the undeveloped shores of Riviera Maya are the perfect choice. Tulum, an off-the-grid beach town, has a boho vibe and offers the perfect romantic setting as it is set on a headland that offers spectacular views of the Caribbean Sea.
Mexican honeymoons can be filled with red-letter moments. You can take speedboats out to desert islands, snorkel together in coral reefs, and hike rainforest trails.
Enjoy evening entertainment full of live music and cultural shows where dancers perform in brightly coloured body paint.
14-night Honeymoon packages start from £2439pp.
