2002 Caribbean Air Arrivals Down, Cruise Arrivals Up
Tourist arrivals by air in 2002 to Caribbean destinations dropped
2.5% from 2001 figures while cruise arrivals rose 10%, according to
recent stats from the Caribbean Tourism Organization says Travel
Weekly. Cruise growth was highest in the Bahamas, Belize, the Cayman
Islands, Curacao and St. Maarten.
Destinations that fared the best among air arrivals were Barbados,
Curacao, the Dominican Republic, Grenada and St. Lucia. Visitor
count also increased in Jamaica, Montserrat, Puerto Rico, Saba and
St. Vincent & The Grenadines, but some destinations' figures are
incomplete for the 12-month period. Although initial expectations
for air and cruise arrivals in the first quarter of 2003 were high,
the expected recovery "has been "derailed" due to the
war in Iraq, erosion of consumer confidence and lackluster economic
activity, according to CTO research.
