Chetumal Airport Is Expanding, Quintana Roo’s Governor, Carlos Joaquin, has announced the expansion of the Chetumal Airport with the help of a 147 million peso investment. His administration has been focused on taking initiatives to grow economically and achieve diversification, hence the new air route from Chetumal to Guadalajara.
“We work to position the entity as one of the five economic powers of the country by encouraging investment and the opening of new businesses, which strengthen the state as a generator of more and better jobs for people,” said the Governor.
Efforts are already being made to promote the Chetumal airport. And with such efforts, results are already coming forth. During the first two months of this year, there was a 2.1 percent increase in the number of passengers and more than a 300 percent increase in air cargo. Chetumal Airport Is Expanding
The promotional work being done is also in response to increasing tourism to destinations such as Mahahual, Bacalar and Chetumal. These cities are part of the Mexican Caribbean and are revered for their natural beauty. The increase in flight passengers has positively impacted hotel occupancy in these towns.
With the upcoming improvements, more economic benefit is expected to come to the towns of Mahahual, Bacalar and Chetumal.
