Were airports in Mexico all closed?

We could not get into USA for a repatriation flight. We hadthat long of a wait from Mexico.

Airspace closed?? It is open between Russia and Thailand. Just afraid their leased planes will be seized.

[Is the 2nd night of quarantine on the SQA++ program a real deal breaker?]

We left Thailand August 12th and flew to US to get a proper vaccine. We have a vacation home there. No hurry to return to Thailand. Decided to fly to Mexico January 3rd. No restrictions at all. Full of American, Canadian, and European tourists. To return to US all that is required is a negative Antigen test 24 hours prior to flight. Will stay in Mexico for 3 1/2 months before returning to US. Will wait there for sanity to return to Thailand.

Are these the October Moderna doses that took me 2 days to get online, and that I paid for in advance that were 'reallocated' to the Red Cross, while I now patiently wait for a whiff of any vaccine, stuck alone at home?

 

Carrot on a string. I got tired and fed up with the lies and promises. We sold our house and flew to Los Angeles last Thursday. We have a vacation home in Arizona. Wife, her son and l already received our 1st Pfizer jab. 2nd jab scheduled 3 weeks after 1st. No waiting or appointment required. In and out at the supermarket pharmacy in 40 minutes. Will wait here for spousal immigration to Canada is approved. Will we return to the land of scams, corruption and lies. Very unlikely.

How will they open in September without a total vaccination. And yes vaccines are currently going to Pattaya. And who in their right mind will travel to Thailand now.

They are waiting for natural herd immunity which is pretty obvious from the current settings as those that ruin (oops I spelt run incorrect) this country have been vaccinated so now there is now rush for vaccines and no priority given to the elderly and vulnerable.

No vaccines for elderly and vunerable but plenty

for Phuket and Pattaya so a handful of tourists can come.

It's everywhere. We had to pay a worker at the land titles office 20,000 baht to get a small piece of land surveyed and subdivided . If we didn't pay they told us it would take 3 to 4 months. They knew we had a buyer and needed it completed in a timely fashion. They were very careful in where we handed over the money. Land of scams and corruption.
