The crew—who were in all probability not government officials, I might add—was under the impression that the airport officials had been bribed and were going to clear them for landing, however, they arrived to the area after the bribed officials had left for the day, and they were denied landing clearance at Cancun.
I had not heard about this little detail of the bribed officials being gone for the day. Sounds silly, but it's just the kind ironic turn of events that often plague real life. LoganCale, can you share your source here?
