Hotels throughout the country reported record occupancy rates for the Easter Weekend, a traditional holiday time in Mexico. Not only were resorts full from Acapulco to Cancun, but also metropolitan areas such as Mexico City reported that business was booming. Holy Week — or Spring Week as it is officially known among the laity — sees many businesses closing, with banks and government offices shutting their doors on Thursday and Friday. Schools are on vacation until next Monday. Airports and bus stations were jammed and drivers plagued by traffic jams at toll stations.
