MEXICO CITY/LIMA—"Want the COVID-19 vaccine? Have a US visa? Contact us," reads a travel agency advertisement, offering deals to Mexicans to fly to the United States to get inoculated.
Gloria Sanchez, 66, and her husband, Angel Menendez 69, traveled in late April to Las Vegas to get Johnson & Johnson's single dose vaccine. "We decided to make it a vacation and we went for a whole week, walked like crazy, ate really expensive but good food, and did some shopping," said Sanchez. But U.S. cities have caught on to the trend, which is ushering much needed business into cash-strapped hotels, restaurants and other service activities.
"I'm getting money together to travel to California in June," said a worker at a car parts store in Lima, who asked not to be named for fear it could jeopardize his travel plans. "Considering how things are going here, there's no hope of a vaccine shot soon." LATAM Airlines Group, the region's largest carrier, said on Thursday it was seeing increased demand from South Americans seeking to travel to the United States to get vaccinated against the coronavirus.
