Promotional visit


Tourism Minister Gloria Guevarra and Rodolfo López-Negrete, chief of the Mexican Tourism Board, will be visiting New York City, Washington, Los Ángeles, Seattle, Atlanta and Houston during the next few days. Goal is to drum up business. It is needed. The Ministry itself reports a 20 percent decline in traffic from the United States, an 18 percent decline at Mazatlan and similar figures at other airports. The percentages refer to arrivals during the first quarter of this year compared to 2010.
