10. COVID-19 Measures for Athletes and Coaches
1. Travel
17Currently, Mexico doesn’t have any air travel restrictions from any country, although the
airlines’ operations are far from being full-fledged. Tourists from anywhere in the world can
visit Mexico now without going into mandatory quarantine or having to take any COVID
diagnostic test. There aren’t any rules defying travel by train or ship either.
Since June 1, the country has introduced a spotlight system which saw the reopening of several
states in Mexico in phases. Places flagged as red allow only essential activities, whereas
restaurants, hotels, and other non-essential activities are open in a limited capacity in the
orange zones. Tourist hotspots such as Mayan Riviera, Los Cabos, and Puerto Vallarta lie in the
orange zone. Hotels and resorts are operating at a maximum occupancy of 30% instead of the
commonly witnessed 85% in the pre-COVID days.
COVID Coordinator: For any question related with COVID restrictions and travel details please
