The International Association of Tour Operators and Travel Agents, Havanatur, proudly marks its 46th anniversary today, as it looks to strengthen and expand its operations.
At present, despite the economic challenges in the island, this organization intends to prioritize certain matters, particularly those concerning congress travel, gatherings, and incentive programs.
Yoelkis Salazar, the CEO of Havanatur, is positive about the company’s achievements and its positive impact on the island’s tourism industry, as well as its extensive portfolio of ideas and proposals.
One of the areas of interest of the company is tourism focused on meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions, commonly referred to as MICE.
The Group is a leader in the promotion of Cuba, with its motto being The Cuba Specialist.
With a network of over 12 offices and branches in America, Europe, and the Caribbean, the company boasts a team of over a thousand professionals who dominate a significant portion of the tourism industry on the island and beyond. This includes agencies affiliated with the Group, as well as those operating in Cuba, with more than 100 contracts for services.
Its portfolio also exceeds 70 sales outlets in Cuba, including the airline ticket office, group and individual travel, car tours, fixed itineraries, and intriguing offerings such as Tierra, Tabaco, and Sol, through initiatives dubbed The Treasures of Cuba, along with excursions and, most importantly, the MICE segment.
