Also...I have heard from many different people that one of the reasons that the tickets too Mexico are so reasonable is that they are subsidized by the government. I have no idea if this is true or not but I have heard it from so many people (including an employee of the British Columbia board of tourism) that I am starting to believe it!

Anyone else hear of anything like that?

P.S. We are still comming to Ambergris Caye but I think we will start to look else where. The difference in ticket pricing could force a change.


Of course we will all start to look elsewhere unless you are software John. Its a recession depression out there.
