The Quintana Roo Tourism Promotion Council (CPTQ) announces that it will strengthen its promotion in Brazil and channel efforts to reestablish air connectivity with that country after confirming the return of electronic visas. Meanwhile, the State Tourism Secretariat is preparing steps to extend this digital process to tourists from Ecuador and Bolivia.
Andrés Martínez Reynoso, head of the CPTQ, announced that, following instructions from the governor herself, they have already scheduled meetings with the main Brazilian tour operators, as well as with airlines from that country, to strengthen that market as soon as possible and capitalize on the expected boom from Latin America with the hosting of the 2026 World Cup:
“I am 100% convinced that we will achieve much greater connectivity. We have already scheduled meetings with the main players in Brazil, such as CVC, Orienter, and of course Gol Airlines, to be able to add more frequencies. So, let’s say that we already had connectivity with Brazil, and now it will grow. It will also grow with Argentina, and we will also have exercises in Chile and Uruguay.”
For his part, Bernardo Cueto Riestra, State Secretary of Tourism, announced that once the return of electronic visas for Brazil has been confirmed, efforts will begin to provide the same facilities to other Latin American markets such as Ecuador and Bolivia, which the Mexican government also requires to apply for a visa to enter the country.
“This electronic visa, which will now be applied to Brazil, will possibly help regulate some of the migratory flows we have to Cancún from South America and other countries such as Ecuador and Bolivia,” the official explained.
He added that efforts will also be made to improve the situation in Colombia, as the number of rejected visitors at the airports of Cancún and Mexico City has already been reduced, but this must be reinforced with promotional activities in that country to publicize the progress made in recovering the flow of visitors that once made it the fourth most important market for the Mexican Caribbean.
