The president of the Administrative Council of the Los Cabos Hotel Association, Mauricio Salicrup, said in an interview for Los Cabos a la Carta and Cabovisión Noticias that so far, hotels are in high demand and despite the fact that certain occupancy has been saved There are some hotels that during certain dates in particular must exceed 50% of the allowed capacity, this due to the fact that there are real estate developments and vacation clubs that have proprietary clients and it is not possible to limit the use of these. He pointed out that it is precisely during the summer when users assert their memberships, therefore, the demand has been greater and it has been distributed in the different resorts and hotels of the destination.

Mauricio Salicrup assured that there is a displacement of tourism, since Canadian tourism has not yet started, although national tourism continues to rise and this due to the correct application of health protocols.

He stressed the commitment made with the Coordinating Council, since there is an over-demand in tourist services and dates have had to be closed. On the other hand, he also mentioned that in various hotels, the decision has been made that employees who are in areas that are adapted to the home office can do so to prevent further spread of infections.

The director of FITURCA, Rodrigo Esponda, said in an interview for Los Cabos a la carte and Cabovisión Noticias that it is important that active cases of Covid 19 decrease so that a full recovery can take place in the destination of Los Cabos.

He said that the only way in which it will be possible to continue with the reception of tourism is by decreasing the cases, since Los Cabos is considered a safe destination, even for the Canadian destination, as he assured that 40% of this will decide whether to travel to Los Cabos depending on the timely management of the pandemic.

On the other hand, opportunities continue to open up, and with these, the arrival of Jet Blue airline flights from Los Angeles and New York, with daily operations and fully booked, further opening the connectivity that promises a greater number of occupancy during this summer.

That is why the director of FITURCA insisted with the invitation for people to comply with security measures, because seen from the labor and economic point of view, one more setback in the epidemiologist traffic light could be fatal.

Jet Blue will operate daily, with 180 seats available.Only on scheduled flights from Los Angeles, there are 40% more seats than in 2019 and New York has become one of the main markets.
