HAVANA TIMES — The 32nd international tourism fair — “FITCuba 2012” — opened on Tuesday on the Santa Maria Key beach resort located in the center-north of the island, reported the Prensa Latina news agency.
This year’s event has three focuses: Argentina as the country of honor, family tourism and beach resorts in the Cuban keys (where this year’s fair is being held in order to entice participants such as tour operators, managers and experts in this sector).
The conference is being attended by representatives from major tourist-issuing markets such as Canada, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Venezuela, Spain, France, Germany and the UK.
Some 2.9 million tourists are expected to travel to Cuba this year, while the hope is to soon receive about three million visitors annually and to establish tourism as one of the most important areas of the national economy.
