The World Travel and Tourism Council confirmed that Mexico maintains its plan to hold the Cancun summit, Quintana Roo, next April despite the outbreak of the coronavirus (Covid-19).
The entity said that so far the World Summit in Cancun will take place as planned and ‘we hope to welcome travel and tourism leaders from around the world, from April 21 to 23.’
The council, which brings together global companies in the travel and tourism sector, considered it important that the entire travel community ‘join forces to work at this difficult time for our industry and support a proportionate response to the outbreak.’
He encouraged the ‘close collaboration’ of the public and private sector to help limit the impact of the virus, combat erroneous information about its spread and avoid unnecessary panic.
