> The US require a negative test to fly in as well so if you test positive outside US, you can't fly via US and come back

Yes but isn't it a rapid antigen test which is cheaper/easier to get than the PCR one?

And what if I was able to sit beside a window? I have a long neck which would enable me to get my long nose out the window!

Almost by definition, second class buses are not well maintained. Some windows open and close; some are open and do not close; some are closed and do not open.

Yikes....I see what you mean. Was this in Zihuatanejo?

In the Zihuatanejo area.

In those states that are "semaforo rojo" it seems that the crowding won't be an issue as transportation is reduced to 50% capacity, but getting a ticket might be more of a problem. Also, wearing masks is mandatory inside of transportation.

I've only booked one international flight for November and I made sure to check the airline had a COVID policy in case there were any changes needed. Other than getting a fare with a refundable or no change fee policy, there isn't much else to do if you happen to test positive and need to move your dates, especially if you test positive in the foreign country.

You can reduce the risk to yourself via what you're doing but there always is one (even if you stayed domestic there's a risk).

Can you compare for us the experience of being tested in each of those 18 countries?
