Mexico just added a tax for cruise passengers: What it means for your trip

Visiting Mexico by cruise ship? You'll soon have to pay up

Carnival Cruise ship

Cruise passengers heading to Mexico will soon be paying a little more. Starting July 1, 2025, the Mexican government will implement a new head tax for travelers arriving at the country’s ports by cruise ship. The initial fee is set at $5 per person and will apply to all cruise guests entering Mexico, a move that comes as part of a broader agreement between the cruise industry and Mexican officials.

Mexico is one of the world’s most popular cruise destinations, with hotspots like Cozumel drawing millions of travelers annually. The new tax replaces a previously proposed $42 fee that was originally scheduled to go into effect this summer. After pushback from cruise lines and tourism advocates, a compromise was reached, resulting in a more gradual rollout of smaller fees.

Norovirus outbreaks are surging on cruise ships in 2025: Here’s how to stay safe

Norovirus outbreaks on cruise ships are at a record high

Cruise ship into the sunset

Norovirus is making waves on cruise ships in 2025, with a sharp rise in outbreaks reported so far this year. As of early May, 16 outbreaks of gastrointestinal illness on cruise ships have met the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) threshold for public notification. Alarmingly, 12 of those outbreaks were caused by norovirus, the highly contagious virus known for its rapid spread and harsh symptoms.

One of the most recent incidents occurred on Holland America Line's Eurodam, where 148 passengers and 22 crew members fell ill between April 12 and May 3. This spike in outbreaks is notable, as previous years saw far fewer incidents: 2024 recorded 18 outbreaks in total, while 2023 saw 14.

Spring snow and sun collide at Palisades Tahoe for the perfect ride

From powder to patios: spring snowboarding in Lake Tahoe hits different

Agate Bay, Lake Tahoe

It was an April morning at Palisades Tahoe ski resort, and the California sun glowed on the mountain. On the ride up the KT-22 Express chairlift, a.k.a. The Mothership, I took in the surroundings. Below, The Fingers, a giant rock outcropping, swelled up and out from the pitch. To my left and right, swaths of snow-covered terrain, with cliffs and rock formations scattered throughout, extended to the horizon. In the distance, Lake Tahoe peeked from beyond the ridgeline. As I slid down the exit ramp, I weaved to the right and surveyed the drop into GS Bowl, with a harrowing incline and moguls reminiscent of compact cars. It was 60 degrees, and I was wearing a T-shirt.

I was on a spring sojourn to Palisades Tahoe, a ski resort famous for terrain that combines hair-raising inclines, massive acreage, and cliffs galore. Over the years, countless ski and snowboard films, along with the athletes who appear in them, have used the mountain as a playground for world-class skiing and riding.
