new-flightsHoteliers and authorities welcomed Delta

It will operate with a daily frequency during the remaining months of the year

The arrival of the new Delta Airlines flight en route from Los Angeles to Puerto Vallarta not only means the official start of the joint promotion with Riviera Nayarit, but also represents the arrival of more affluent American tourism for both destinations.

Hotel and resort representatives of Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit welcomed on Wednesday the new daily flight operated by Delta from the Californian city, which will arrive in the remaining months of this year.

The flight, with a capacity for 144 passengers, arrived at the international airport of this city with 122 tourists on board, who were greeted with mariachi music and a committee composed of representatives of Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit.

Led by the president of the Association of Hotels and Motels in Puerto Vallarta, Beraud Ignacio Cadena, CEO of the Convention and Visitors Bureau of Riviera Nayarit, Marc Murphy, the delegation welcomed passengers from the Deltaf flight and delivered a present to the captain of the plane.

The arrival of the new flight is the product of the joint promotional campaign between Puerto Vallarta-Riviera Nayarit, supported by the Federal Ministry of Tourism (Sectur) and the Tourism Promotion Council of Mexico (CPTM).

About the arrival of the flight, Ignacio Cadena said that after many efforts, he finally landed with joint promotion events between Vallarta and Riviera, "this is going to keep repeating throughout the remainder of the year because up to 18 new cities are coming."

He considered the fact that in this new Delta flight most passengers are families as well as tourists with better economic status, which "will certainly benefit all those who live on tourism in the region of bahía de Banderas ".

"Fortunately the flight is composed of families. It is a very balanced type of tourism, of a medium to high social class and the plane is full. Therefore this is the start of something very good for Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit, as part of the joint promotion" , whose campaign is called Vallarta-Nayarit and which seeks to reach several cities in the United States and Canada.

At the welcoming ceremony there was also the presence of the municipal tourism director, Carlos Gerard Guzman, regional director of tourism on the northern coast of Jalisco, Ludwig Estrada Virgen, and the director of the Trust for Tourism of Puerto Vallarta, William Ohem, among others.

THE CLUE:

The flight, with a capacity for 144 passengers, arrived at the international airport of this city with 122 tourists aboard.
