The perception that it is dangerous led to a 52 percent decline in arrivals in Acapulco last year, according to airport figures. Other cities reporting a decline include Tijuana (24 percent), La Paz (14 percent), Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo (11 percent) and Mazatlán (6 percent). Poor economic conditions abroad also get part of the blame.
