Been to Cancun, Lately?

Mexican baby food
Did you know that one out of every four LV residents visits Cancun every year??

That's what The Morning Call claims, so it must be true.

Yep. 218,444 LV residents (not 218,445) travel to Cancun each year. That's one out of four of us.

164,402 LV residents (not 164,401) visit Punta Cana each year. That's one out of five of us. Another 157,672 LV residents (not 157,673) are at Montego Bay each year. That's nearly one in five. And 225,000 LV residents travel to either San Juan, Nassau, or Aruba. That's more than one in four LV residents.

Man, we must be loaded!

No wonder so many people speak Spanish.

I've been to Philly, by the way.

This bullshit is being smeared on the pages of a newspaper, not a blog, to get the LVIA board to spring for some $5 million international customs station, so people can be searched even more closely.

Never mind that $26 million judgment. Maybe it will go away.

And as blogger Michael Molovinsky has observed, Dumbo the Flying Elephant will now be headquartered at LVIA.

  2. I would expect that most of these folk get to these locations via cruise ship not by air from ABE.

    Perhaps they should fix their current problems before them embark on more foolishness.

  4. After 30 years in statistics and analysis, I can say with certainty that their numbers are ridiculous.

  5. They want to spend, spend,spend!! It's stimulus so it's ok.

    Lot's of people going back and forth to PR. Some make multiple trips (not worrying about school absences) so San Juan might be feasible.

  6. Who cares?

    It's free money from the Government.

    Like Pawlowski's Palace of Sport!

    We are saved.

    Thank you Progressive Liberal Democrats.

    I'm in awe of your collective genius.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
