Piura's Placement Factors
Asked about why those places are trending, Viajala explains that factors as aerial routes opening, low-cost airlines introducing, or the touristic development of the destination were key for the few traditional cities to lead the ranking. Currently we have flights arriving directly to Piura City (PIU) and others may land in Talara City (TIL)*. The rates decrease means the destination is becoming more attractive, so there is more competition in routes. More offers also mean lower prices, it explained.

The fact of identifying the trends in each country also speaks about the good dynamics of its tourism. According to Viajala, Mexico is the country that has more receptive turism while Brazil highlights for having the major passengers inner market. However, Colombia is what grows faster. In that sense, it stated the Viajala Report will be repeated every year and pretends to warn how the preferences of each country go modifying and how the context of the industry impacts on the decisions taken at the travelling time.
