Is your budget enough?

Is CA$5,000 enough for a family trip to Cancún?
Not for this trip. Cancún starts around CA$5,927 for 4 people over 7 nights, so CA$5,000 would leave you short before you've spent anything on the ground.
Is CA$6,000 enough for a family trip to Cancún?
It can work, but it depends what you book. CA$6,000 sits inside the CA$5,927–CA$8,293 range — the cheaper end means compromises on flights or location, not bad luck.
Is CA$7,000 enough for a family trip to Cancún?
It can work, but it depends what you book. CA$7,000 sits inside the CA$5,927–CA$8,293 range — the cheaper end means compromises on flights or location, not bad luck.
Is CA$8,000 enough for a family trip to Cancún?
It can work, but it depends what you book. CA$8,000 sits inside the CA$5,927–CA$8,293 range — the cheaper end means compromises on flights or location, not bad luck.
Is CA$9,000 enough for a family trip to Cancún?
Comfortably. CA$9,000 clears the top of the CA$5,927–CA$8,293 range, which leaves room for a better location or a direct flight rather than the cheapest one.
