As someone else said, some people like em, some dont. I liked having a red eye at the end of a trip because then I am released around 7am, go home, sleep till 10-11am and its like having a whole extra day off with some soft pay. If you commute they're great too because the flights are timed to arrive in order to connect to the first bank out of the hub so you can usually get on the first or second flight to where ever home is.

And, yeah, those Mexican villages like Cabo San Lucas, Zihuantanejo, and Puerto Vallarta are ROUGH! Especially when they put us up in an all-inclusive (including booze) on the beach. Stay away from those...far far away... Unless you are one of those losers who are scared to leave your hotel room in Mexico, there is fun to be had at pretty much any place we overnight in Mexico. The one place that is kinda hairy right now is Oaxaca but thats a short overnight anyway.
