Thank you Nicole, I appreciate your response! The concierge described the $25 Rapid test as an antigen test so I will clarify with them. The price difference is significant so I would rather spend that money on more margaritas and guacamole!

I'm thrilled to say that we are traveling to Mexico in March! We have never tested positive for the coronavirus. I contacted our resort in Riviera Maya and they told us that the resort will be offering testing for their guests at the resort. We can schedule our tests at check-in to make sure we get them 3 days prior to departure to return to the US. The labs at the resort are offering 2 kinds of tests: a PCR for $110 per person and a Rapid for $25 per person. The CDC says that reentering the US will require: "A viral test means a viral detection test for current infection (i.e., a nucleic acid amplification test or a viral antigen test)." So can we get the $25 rapid test? Will that be acceptable to board a Southwest flight back to the US? Please advise and thank you.
