4/1/20 Washington Post:
About 70
students from the University of Texas at Austin, all in their 20s,
chartered a plane to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, in late March. They took
the trip
despite public health advice to avoid crowding as well as nonessential air travel.
On Tuesday, Austin public health officials
announced
28 students, more than a third of the young people who took the trip,
had returned and tested positive for the coronavirus. Many of the
remaining students are under public health monitoring, according to
officials.[emphasis added]
"Chartered a plane"? My college days weren't that wealthy. Yes, forgive student loan debt.
And the Post didn't state the name of the airline who took the charter, though a reporter with the level of information he/she had obviously had to know it.
