???????The Dominican Republic's Ministry of Tourism is rolling out new safety measures in an effort to calm the fears of Americans traveling to the Caribbean island, according to the ministry's chief of staff Pablo Espinal.
Jamaica’s northeast coast is the ideal spot for high-end, low-density eco-tourism and lifestyle resort development, with the potential for higher average daily rates, says Tourism Minister Edmund Bartlett.
A new marketing gateway is being opened by way of the tourism linkages strategy, for the “the ordinary Jamaican” to benefit from dollar resources of the growing industry.
US flight bookings to the Dominican Republic have rallied after a sharp plunge last month as prospective visitors were rattled by a spate of allegedly mysterious American deaths in the Caribbean country in May and June.
Visitor arrivals to St. Vincent and the Grenadines increased by 7.1 year-over-year during the first five months of 2019, St. Vincent and the Grenadines Tourism Authority officials report.
After watching bookings to the island drop by more than 80 percent, the Dominican Republic is finally starting to see a modest rebound.
