The Dominican Republic Leads Tourism Recovery in Latin America
Air ticket reservations from October to December 2021 are between 12 per cent and 22 per cent above those made in the same period in 2019 to this country.
On Sunday, Tourism Minister David Collado announced that the Dominican Republic surpassed pre-pandemic reception levels of tourists in September when 365,544 travellers arrived in his country.
"Tourism industry recovery has generated about US$412 million to our country," Collado highlighted, adding that the Dominican Republic leads this sector's re-establishment in Latin America.
According to flight reservation data from ForwardKeys Analytics Company, air ticket reservations from October to December 2021 are between 12 per cent and 22 per cent above those made in the same period in 2019 to this country. In addition, 1,5 million tourists are expected to arrive by the end of the year.
Dominican tourism's recovery is mainly due to the easing of travel restrictions in Russia, Spain, Colombia, and the United States, their traditional markets. So far this year, this industry has re-established 82 per cent of jobs suspended due to the pandemic in the Dominican Republic and the country's hotel business, which Spanish entrepreneurs mainly own.
