Cancun, Q.R. — Quintana Roo reaffirms its position as one of the most important tourist destinations in the country. In the first 10 months of the year, the state of Quintana Roo has recorded 24.4 million visitors.
According to the State Tourism Secretariat (SEDETUR) headed by Bernardo Cueto Riestra, Cancun ranked second busiest, handling 24.4 million passengers, after the Benito Juárez International Airport (AICM) in Mexico City with 36.9 million.
This performance confirms the preference of tourism for the destinations that Quintana Roo has, as well as the quality of the tourist services that characterize the state such as its hospitality, gastronomy, jungle, beaches, cenotes and archaeological zones.
Thanks to the coordinated work between federal and state authorities and airport operators, actions have been implemented to improve the quality of the visitor experience, reducing waiting times and enhancing service.
These actions have contributed to the fact that the Cancun International Airport continues to be one of the most airports important in Mexico, and the gateway for millions of tourists who visit Quintana Roo every year.
From January to October of this year, 157.2 million visitors arrived in Mexico. Of those, 24.4 million landed at the Cancun International Airport, positioning itself as a tourist gateway.
