The director of the Los Cabos Tourism Trust, Rodrigo Esponda, mentioned in an interview for Los Cabos a la Carta and Cabovisión Noticias that in the surveys carried out on tourists, one of the most disadvantaged points is undoubtedly the issue of mobility, well, they take a long time to travel within the destination, at the same time that they report that they must leave well in advance to reach the airport and not miss their flights back home.

On tourism promotion issues, he reported that Routes, held in San Antonio, Texas, is an event that reviews with the planning departments of the different airlines why fly to certain destinations? Highlighting the importance of these air routes in a technical sense: "this year has been a very successful event, it has been very propitious because the tourism industry is recovering, the aviation industry also because there is new generation equipment on the market" assured Rodrigo Esponda.

"Fortunately there is an unusual activity in the aviation industry, with new players that have been entering as in the case of Iberojet, for example, it received new planes and it has been a particular consolidation that is what has allowed the route to be faster. , in the case of Canada there is a revolution, there are three new airlines that have entered the market "said Esponda, regarding the new regulations that will be carried out in the United States and Canada because it will be more permissive in its trips abroad .

Regarding ANATO, Tourist Showcase, an event held in Colombia, Rodrigo Esponda mentioned that this is a really interesting market, since during 2021 about 400 thousand tourists traveled to Mexico from Colombia.

The experience of having a close encounter with the largest animal on the planet and in history is something truly unforgettable.

Oscar Ortíz, Tourist Services Provider: “…first you hear what the blowing is, which can measure up to 12 meters, just the blowing, and you get to observe this great great animal, how it begins to melt between what is the surface of the sea ​​and its layer of skin”.

This is the blue whale. A marine mammal with dimensions that only up close can be believed.

Rodolfo Palacios Manager of the of the Loreto Bay National Marine Park: “·…we are talking about that they can measure up to 30 meters and 180 tons. And when this one is born… they are born from 7 to 8 meters and weigh 2.5 to 3 tons…”

Oscar Ortíz, Tourist Services Provider: “…Their heart is the size of a small car… yes? the tongue weighs the same as an elephant and is the largest mammal that has existed in the history of our planet.

It is called blue because when swimming it changes its hue to the color of the sea.

Oscar Ortíz, Provider of Tourist Services: "... they have a dark, almost silvery skin and the reflection of the sun with the water and their skin makes them have a magnificent blue spot or blue mark in the mirror of water."

Their presence in the Sea of ​​Cortez in Loreto Bay, Baja California Sur is normally from January to April, but it is more likely to be seen in March and more than 80 vessels are authorized.

Rodolfo Palacios, Manager of the National Marine Park of Loreto: “…about 80 or 90 boats authorized for this sighting… one has been framed in the management program, a superficial triangle that goes from Isla del Carmen, Isla Danzante and Isla Montserrat

Carlos Godínez, Master of Science, National Commission of Natural Protected Areas: “Blue whales arrive in the Bay of Loreto to have their young, to mate and spend two to three months in the breeding period… they feed on a hundred, one hundred and fifty liters of milk daily.”

Semarnat has implemented a permanent operation that avoids approaching them within 100 meters and only 4 boats at the same time, to protect visitors and whales.

Carlos Godínez, director of the Cabo Pulmo National Park: “…and the rule is that you only have to approach 100 meters away, with a smaller boat, with a boat and a larger boat it is 120 meters and equal to 240 meters for observation… ”

Until this month of February, 11 specimens and two calves have been registered and it is expected that some more may arrive at the beginning of March and the cost for their sighting may vary and is per boat of 6 and up to 10 people.

Óscar Ortiz, Tourist Services Provider: "...they are approximately $2,500 pesos and last about 5 hours, in terms of whale watching, since sometimes you have to go, you have to go to locate them, look for them..."

In 1926 it was estimated that there were about 125,000 individuals in the seas, however by 2018 their number was reduced to only 3,000 individuals, so the species was classified as "critically endangered" on the Red List of the International Union for Conservation of the nature.

Mauricio Salicrup, president of the Los Cabos Chapter of the National Council of Tourism Entrepreneurs, said in an interview for Los Cabos a la Carta and Cabovisión News that a protest was taken from the Trust before the Secretary of Finance of Baja California Sur regarding the charge for use by tourists, same that will be charged by means of a QR code at the time of making your reservation by entering the official page of the government of Baja California Sur, it can also be paid at the destination at the reception.

At the end of the road, I think we are all aware that there is a great need to narrow the gap in terms of services to the community and what we have as a tourist destination, so the objective is to find a way knowing that there are no extraordinary resources on the part of the federation" said Mauricio Salicrup regarding this concept that although it was raised in the past administration by the State Congress, the current administration took it up again with a specific plan on the works that are planned to be carried out with these resources.

There will be transparency, said Mauricio Salicrup, sure that it will be carried out like the other Trusts where information on resource management is available to everyone, for which the Los Cabos Hotel Association supports the state government.

The director of the Los Cabos Tourism Trust, FITURCA, said in an interview for Los Cabos a la Carta and Cabovisión Noticias that Iberojet has already started selling direct flights to Los Cabos from Madrid to start operations in June 2022:

“Today the commercialization of the air ticket is opened, be it Los Cabos-Madrid, Madrid-Los Cabos. As of June 20, it will be operating every Monday, arriving at Los Cabos at 7 in the afternoon and leaving from there at 2 in the afternoon; they are at very affordable prices, just over 7 thousand pesos for a single flight from Los Cabos to Madrid starting June 20” said Rodrigo Esponda regarding this innovative flight that will connect Los Cabos and Spain non-stop.

On the other hand, he reported that Flair Airlines, a Canadian airline, inaugurated three new direct routes to Los Cabos from Edmonton, Vancouver and Abbostsford, which will operate three times a week: “although the Canadian market is not yet back in full force, with initiatives such as we are advancing and advancing so that in the following months the flow can be regularized” said the director of FITURCA about the growing air connectivity that continues to operate in Los Cabos.
