π¨πΊπ¨π³π¬ β Cuba is trying to revive its diminished tourism sector with Chinese travelers
β‘οΈ A report from
Global Times, a media outlet serving the Chinese Communist Party, states that searches for keywords like
"Cuban hotels" and
"flights" increased
"by more than 40% on the Ctrip travel platform compared to the previous day." This happened half an hour after the announcement of a visa-free policy starting this month for Chinese citizens.
β Cuba became an
"unattractive tourism market," reported
Diario de Cuba a year ago. The reasons are not hard to guess: poor quality of services in hotels, including power outages, lack of supplies and food, as well as insecurity, fuel and medicine shortages.
