Mexico Resorts: 3 free trips if you catch the flu

[da.shmoopies]

A group of resorts in Mexico are offering incentives to go to Mexico because there are some folks that are still afraid to get swine flu.

 

The participating properties are Zoetry Wellness & Spa Resorts, Secrets and Dreams Resorts & Spas, Azul Hotels by Karisma, El Dorado Spa Resorts & Hotels by Karisma, and Real Resorts.

 

The resorts are located in Cancun, Riviera Maya and Playa del Carmen.

 

I read this on Yahoo News, and thought I'd spread the word. I'm sure there are some people that are worried about traveling to Mexico. This may help sweeten the deal.

So these are only in those areas - not other areas of Mexico?

Looks like it from what the article says. It may catch on in other areas of Mexico if it works.

I can just imagine people standing by the gates of these resorts and "selling" flu sneezes... so that you can get a few free trips

[jajajaja]

OMG- I would TOTALLY be up for that. Catch the flu and get a free trip? That's awesome!

The Dreams website calls it their Flu-Free Guarantee: "In order to qualify, the guest must have reserved their stay between May 8, 2009 and June 30, 2009 for travel taking place between May 8, 2009 and December 20, 2009"
