Cuba: un país en ruinas que ha salido del mapa turístico

  • Juan Mestre
  • 15 March 2025
🏝 Cuba's hotel occupancy sits at barely 25%, reflecting a political and social decline with tourism not expected to recover until 2030. In 2024, Cuba witnessed a 10% decrease in international travelers to 2.2 million, marking a 17-year low. Tourism revenue plummeted to $1.216 billion, a 61% drop from pre-pandemic levels. Over 10,000 skilled tourism workers have emigrated in the last three years, and companies like Iberojet have ceased flights while Iberia reduced frequencies. Meliá created an importing company in July to combat widespread shortages in Cuban hotels. Despite tourism struggles, Cuba allocated 40% of its first-half-year investments to the sector, investing 4.6 times more in hotel room construction than in education, health, or agriculture.

La esquizofrenia de ir a buscar turistas y hablar de masificación

  • Juan Mestre
  • 8 March 2025
🏖 The ITB Berlin tourism fair unexpectedly centered around the over-tourism debate in the Balearic Islands. President of the Mallorca Hotel Federation, Javier Vich, addressed criticism in Berlin, emphasizing that Mallorca is not overcrowded. The political climate in the Balearics favors measures against tourist saturation, linking increased tourism not to hotels, which have fewer spots than before, but to unregulated vacation rentals, influencing housing prices. Hoteliers advocate for quality tourism and oppose the rise of an eco-tax proposed to curb mass tourism.

Los predecesores de Zurab Pololikashvili no lo quieren en la OMT

  • Juan Mestre
  • 7 March 2025
🏖 Former UNWTO leaders Francesco Frangialli and Taleb Rifai urged the current UN Tourism Secretary-General, Zurab Pololikashvili, not to seek a third term, citing the need for change. They highlight their efforts in the late '60s and early '70s, leading to the UNWTO's 2004 transformation into a UN specialized agency. Criticizing the flawed initial election of Pololikashvili in 2017, they detail the exclusion of an African candidate, procedural irregularities, and Pololikashvili's subsequent manipulation of his re-election process during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Canarias: chivatos contra el absentismo laboral en el turismo

  • Juan Mestre
  • 1 March 2025
🏠 Canary Island tourism suffers due to high absenteeism, significantly impacting the hotel industry. Employers respond by creating anonymous tip boxes to report unjustified absences, replacing labor inspectors. The regional absenteeism rate has soared to 80%, compared with the national increase of 50%. This absenteeism affects 8.1% of the Canary Islands' economic activity and costs €2.4 billion annually. Employers criticize public healthcare and inadequate controls while unions blame poor investment in occupational health and lack of worker training.

Air Europa tiene ahora un valor de 800 M€, según calcula Lufthansa

  • Juan Mestre
  • 25 February 2025
📍 Lufthansa values Air Europa at €800 million, eyeing 25% of its shares, currently owned by the Hidalgo family. In contrast, IAG previously valued Air Europa at €650 million. In early 2019, IAG's offer to buy Air Europa was €1 billion, but this was lowered post-pandemic and eventually dropped due to EU Commission hurdles. Bidders have until the end of this week to submit non-binding offers. Lufthansa has also proposed supplying Air Europa with up to 10 Boeing 787s, adding to their existing fleet of around 25 of this model. Lufthansa and Air Europa have agreed on codesharing to assess operational efficiency. The Hidalgo family aims to sell 25% of Air Europa to help repay part of the €475 million rescue debt, with Lufthansa's potential €200 million investment earmarked for this purpose.

Air Europa: muy cerca del acuerdo para vender el 25% de acciones a Lufhansa

  • Juan Mestre
  • 24 February 2025
🚀 Lufthansa aims to acquire a 25% stake in Air Europa, providing a €240 million boost to the Hidalgo group. This investment will help Air Europa repay €240 million of the €475 million rescue funds. The Hidalgos originally intended to sell only 20% but have adjusted their position. Lufthansa's agreement includes a wet lease for flights between Brussels and New York. Advised by Goldman Sachs, Lufthansa also negotiates to supply Air Europa with ten 787s to enhance revenue. Air Europa seeks to finalize shareholder configurations this week, with the current proposal from Air France-KLM falling short of Lufthansa's.

Sin respuesta política a los aeropuertos tomados por los sintecho

  • Juan Mestre
  • 22 February 2025
🛫 Madrid's Barajas Airport daily hosts around 500 homeless individuals, with similar issues at Barcelona and Palma airports. No substantial action has been taken by Aena or other institutions. Workers describe the airports as lawless zones with unchecked crime. Alternativa Sindical reports that homeless individuals misuse facilities and hinder passengers. Barcelona's El Prat Airport shelters around 100 homeless nightly, while Palma airport sees dozens, exacerbated by Mallorca's housing shortage. The responsibility to address the issue remains unclaimed by institutions.

Maroto recurre al silencio sobre sus encuentros con Javier Hidalgo

  • Juan Mestre
  • 21 February 2025
📌 Reyes Maroto, former Tourism Minister and current opposition leader in Madrid's City Council, used silence as her defense strategy in the Senate regarding her involvement with Javier Hidalgo amidst a corruption investigation into Aldama, Koldo, and Ábalos. Maroto previously lied about her contacts with Aldama, with 42 messages found by the UCO. She met with Hidalgo in July 2020 during Globalia's airline bailout negotiations, where her opinion was influential. Maroto's response to a message from Aldama is encrypted and unrevealed by the Guardia Civil.
