Last year my wife and I flew for $720 a person, direct from Detroit to Cancun both ways. I think we flew AeroMexico, which is serviced by Delta. Flights were cheaper for a while, but we waited too long and had to pay more in the end for a direct flight. It was Valentine's Day weekend last year too.
In 2017, we flew direct on Spirit for $390 a person, including all the hidden bag check fees and whatnot. Spirit isn't Delta, and it wasn't Valentine's Day weekend, so that might explain the difference.
It's worth looking into ways to maximize your credit card rewards on a trip like this too, you can usually get a few hundred dollars back that way (The flight costs above are the listed price of the tickets w/all fees and don't include any rewards or miles or anything we applied toward the purchases).
