Mexico 
The Mexican authorities have been trying their best to provide the most accurate and up to date information in regards swine flu epidemic and the current preventive recommendations when traveling. At Meeting Incentive Experts, it is in our best interest to share with you this information, so please consider the following;  
At this point, if you are thinking about traveling to Mexico, the best thing to do is to follow the recommendations of local and international health authorities. It is important to mention that destinations such as Cancun in the state of Quintana Roo, Puerto Vallarta in Jalisco and Los Cabos in Baja California Sur, have not registered any cases so far. Therefore we believe that prevention is the key.

SAFETY IN MEXICO: OUR CLIENTS PERSEPECTIVE
 
Safety in Mexico it is still a concern for some meeting planners. MIE has succesfully conducted several programs this year in Mexico. This is why we decided that the best testimony would be from our clients after their program took place.
 
"While we were in Cancun I always felt safe and secure.  I think the police are doing a great job at monitoring the destination to help prevent issues and for me it was nice to see the police presence knowing they were keeping an eye on things.
 
Anyone traveling to the destination just needs to use basic travel common sense and they will be fine.  Its just as safe as any major US cities I have been in." said Dawn Jones, meeting planner at Red Prairie.

Continental Airlines last month said it plans to officially exit the SkyTeam airline alliance on Oct. 24, after which the carrier "promptly" will transition to the Star Alliance. "We want to make our transition from SkyTeam to the Star Alliance as customer-friendly as possible for both our customers and those of the Sky Team alliance," Continental CEO Larry Kellner said. Continental in June 2008 announced intentions to leave SkyTeam and tightly align with United Airlines and its Star Alliance partners (BTNonline, June 30,2008). Continental's plans for Star Alliance include a four-way antitrust-immunized joint venture with United, Air Canada and Lufthansa, which awaits U.S. Department of Transportation approval.
