Possible 737 drone strike in Tijuana

This is gonna be waaaaaay off topic but, Volaris, Vivaaerobus, Aero Mexico, and Interjet have literally siphoned off the entire mexican population that travels living in San Diego. I took the flight from Tijuana and not LAX because the friend traveling with me lived in SAN and SAN didn't have a direct flight. This is gonna cause some school fights in here but what are everyones thoughts on this? People living in the US, that came from Mexico are sending business to Mexican carriers instead of spending it back into our economy. That terminal was PACKED. The CBX bridge crossing into mexico was packed. Airbus after airbus was full and departing every few minutes. I understand the consumer is always going to go with the cheapest fare, but I'm starting to wonder how much of that discretionary income goes back into the Mexican economy instead of being spent here where the job is.

My German student that lives here and has a green card, runs his dads company. He drives a BMW(German made) and flies Lufhtansa back to Germany every few months so maybe its more common than I realize?

I think that it goes to price point. But also psychology. Humans as a species like to group together with like those that look and think the same as they do. It goes back to our primal nature of fear anything that was different from you. They're the enemy. This is way self-segregation down ethnic sexual orientation, minority status and racial lines still exist today. Example. China/Korean/Japanese town. LGBT neighborhoods/"gayborhoods" etc.

The passengers of these airlines are going back home to Mexico and riding there on a Mexican airline vs a foreign airline. With people that look like them. Speak like them and have a similar culture. As far as our nature as human beings, it makes sense to me.
 
If it’s anything like Turkish Airline, if you have a friend buy your tickets for you from the website while in Turkey it’s considerably cheaper than buying them while in the US. Unfortunately we didn’t discover this before booking our JFK-IST-JFK flight, but for our domestic Turkey flight had we booked in the US it was $250, booking it from Turkey was $40.

Hows your training coming along? Hurry up and finish so you can write @Derg a "Dear Dough" letter for SJI.
 
Was the guy ever caught who had the video footage from his drone filming airliners landing at LAS from above?

They arrested 2 people for the Gatwick incident. Perhaps unrelated, but yesterday someone posted pics of Gatwick from above on Reddit claiming they were drone shots from earlier in the day but don’t know if they were real.
