I just don’t get it when I read things like this:

“It’s like, the sun’s out, let’s go, and we’re still here,” said Lynn Wickum, of San Francisco, Calif., as she drank a beer at one of the few Cancun bars that finally opened. “We feel the frustration building. You wouldn’t want to make a scene, but at the same time, you’re ready to go home.”

Many of Cancun’s own 500,000 residents had lost nearly everything in flooded or destroyed homes.

Here you are, in the middle of a disaster that not only has flattened many people’s homes but is going to ruin their year due to significantly less tourism this season - which they rely on in order to feed their families. All in a country that already has economic hardship. So sit back, drink a beer and complain how you have to wait (patience is not an American virtue) a little bit longer until you get to go home, away from it all and plan your next vacation.
