Tourists evacuated from Mexico's hurricane-hit Acapulco

Authorities said, airlines began to evacuate tourists from Mexico's city of Acapulco on Friday after a Category 5 hurricane left a trail of destruction and at least 27 people dead. "Acapulco airport has already been reopened," Defense Minister said in Mexico City. The runway had not suffered major damage.
Passengers arrived at Acapulco Airport, after Hurricane Otis smashed into the city. The airport buildings and installations appeared to be severely damaged, with broken glass and debris littering the ground. The control tower and navigation systems were severely affected, so flights will be operated visually. Some visitors left by road after the main highway to the capital was reopened.
