Juan Carlos Garcia, Cuban first deputy minister of tourism, said in Havana that the country is ready for the high season of tourism, which starts this November.
We are beginning to grow, in the Canadian market we have many more flights, about 60.000 more seats, we expect tour operators to convince customers to occupy them, he told the press during the Havana International Fair, FIHAV 2019, which is taking place from November 4-8, in Expocuba fairgrounds.
He also said that they have worked hard to ensure the quality of services, have met with different agencies and have made the necessary imports.
According to the first deputy minister, new flights have been set up for the season, not only to Varadero, but also to other parts of the island such as the northern keys.
We are also doing a lot of advertising, trying to counteract some of the campaigns US has launched against us," Garcia added.
Paseo del Prado hotel will be opened soon in Havana, another building that will be incorporated into the country's hotel plan, especially to reinforce the five-star plus service that the capital needed to convince an important market segment that did not come because such facilities did not exist, the deputy minister noted.
In the last decade, the arrival of international visitors to Cuba grew by 100.2 percent, while the hotel plant has increased by 45.7 percent, a sign Cuba's interest in strengthening the tourism sector.
