Increase in number of Italians arriving to La Romana Airport, Casa de Campo

The La Romana Airport, Casa de Campo continues to consolidate its strong position within the Italian market.

In 2014, the La Romana Airport, Casa de Camp had an increase of more than 12% in arrivals from Italy over the previous year. La Romana Airport receives passengers from Rome and Milan travelling with Alitalia, Blue Panorama, Meridiana Fly and Neos Air Lines.

This significant increase also confirms the destination La Romana – Bayahibe as a favorite among Italian tourists, where many hotels consider Italians to be their primary customers and as such have been adapting their product to meet the needs and demands of the Italian market.

“For years the Italian market has been quite interested in us, not only as an airport but as a tourist destination. This motivated us to develop some special initiatives for them, and we’re happy to continue to be the main access point for Italians arriving to the Dominican Republic”, said Luis Emilio Rodriguez, Manager of La Romana Airport, Casa de Campo. “Our goal is to maintain this leading position and increase the number of arrivals, an endeavour which we are working very hard at” he added.

According to the latest statistics released by Asonahores, the Italian market has increased arrivals by almost 4% in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period of 2014, indicating that this year we can expect the number of Italian visitors to continue to increase.
