not to mention being forced to fly AM or any of the Mexico LCC for the last leg of each trip. and there is not even sterile international transit in Mexico. you have to go through passport control each time like how one does when landing in US. plus give up flying on premium airlines

all these when the likelihood of testing positive is not even that high when you practice caution and understand how coronavirus is transmitted.
