Colombia each day traveling easier
To achieve this initiative will sell air tickets with up to 50 percent discount for all foreigners who wish to visit the country in the off-season. In addition, outside visitors will benefit from the devaluation of the Colombian peso, which, in the last year, lost 67.59 percent against the dollar.
That is, not only those who plan to know Colombia will be able to buy cheap plane tickets, but also the money for travel expenses will almost double them.
Fabian Villegas, president of Avianca, said that in recent months the country has become an attractive destination for tourists around the world as a result of the devaluation of the peso.
"Traveling through Colombia is now 40 percent cheaper than the previous year. In contrast, because of the dollar, for Colombians it is more expensive to travel abroad, "explains Villegas, who clarified that Avianca's promotional rates include ticket taxes and are exempt from extra costs.
With this proposal the national government seeks to boost the tourism industry in the country. According to Maria Claudia Lacouture, president of ProColombia, this alliance seeks to boost the tourism sector in a month with little traffic of travelers as it is September, for example.
"It is an opportunity, also, to show the tourism products that we promote through the campaign 'Colombia is magical realism' and economically impact the different sectors of the industry as tour operators, hoteliers and commerce," says Lacouture.
For Lacouture, tourism goods and services in Colombia are less expensive for foreigners and local supply is more competitive thanks to the increase in the price of the dollar, which automatically reduced the value of tourist packages (Including accommodation) for all international visitors.
The president of the Colombian Association of Travel and Tourism Agencies (ANATO), Paula Cortés, also applauded this initiative. For Cortes this not only means a boost for travel agencies, but for all people who benefit from the tourist activity, in all regions of the country. Avianca also promises to keep rates discounted for Colombian travelers, who can benefit Of this promotion from 1 to 14 September and from 21 to 28 September.
