This weekend Cancun experienced an average hotel occupancy rate of almost 64 per cent, which means 14 points above the 50 percent that was predicted for the end of June.

After the Mexican government launched the Vive Mexico campaign, and hotel directors worked on other campaigns such as “Please recommend us” and “Flu free guarantee”, the amount of reservations took a higher look than predicted, which was reflected in Cancun´s hotel occupancy rate of this week that was over 60 percent.

This 64 per cent hotel occupancy rate is equivalent to approximately more than the 28,000 rooms available in Cancun.

This vacation destination is expected to maintain  these high levels of occupancy due to the good numbers of reservations that have been made for the following week of June, which is why it´s very possible that this high summer season will overpass the 70 percent of hotel occupancy predicted.

For another instance, the International Airport in Cancun reported this weekend a total of 296 air operations that include landings and take-offs.

The Terminal Two registered 49 national flights and 33 international flights. Terminal Three  reported 86 international arrivals and 65 departures.
