Acapulco Sunshine


Guerrero Gov. Angel Aguirre reports that his promotion trip to New York, Washington and Miami was a great success. He says that he has interested Marriott in returning to Acapulco and opening a hotel in Ixtapa as well. To get there, he says that United and Air Canada will inaugurate routes and that Aeroméxico plans direct service from U.S. cities. On top of that, he has organized a fam trip to Acapulco for spring break tour operators. Acapulco, once the prime international resort destination in Mexico, has lost out, both because of increased international competition and because of criminal activity.
