Holidays & events
- February holidays on the Mexico's federal labor law (LFT art. 74 via PROFEDET): Dia de la Constitucion (observed first Monday of February) on February 1. Where the source gives a rule rather than a date, the 2027 date is worked out from that rule. US federal holidays that month (OPM): Washington's Birthday on February 15; those shape Omaha departures rather than anything in Cancun. Occupancy for February is not in our data; Ann hears it from the resorts.
