This past weekend, nearly 300 Finnish passengers arrived to Puerto Vallarta on board the Airbus A350, the first Finnair plane to reach our destination. The new route Helsinki – Puerto Vallarta has officially begun operations and will be landing at the Puerto Vallarta International Airport once a week during the following five months, carrying a total of 6 thousand tourists. This achievement has been possible thanks to the efforts of the Puerto Vallarta Tourism Board, the Mexico Tourism Board and the company Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico.

After a 12-hour flight, the passengers were greeted with Mariachi, a Catrina and Day of the Dead installation, souvenirs, tequila and raicilla cocktails.

“This new flight opens up for us the possibility to get to know traditional Mexico at this wonderful city, unlike other beach Mexican destinations”, declared Roy Eriksson, Finland ambassador in our country. “It will also bring more business and tourism possibilities between Mexico and Finland”.

70 percent of these Nordic visitors will be staying in Puerto Vallarta for two weeks, while 30 percent of them will stay for one week (representing an occupancy of 20 thousand room/nights).

“There are lots of reasons why we have advertised in Vallarta Lifestyles for several years. One of them is that they know pretty well their target, because they know who are their readers and they adapt as much as possible the content and material that is offered. For these reasons they have a growing number of readers which is very important for us. Another reason is that many people —including us— think that the magazine has been as a serious publication since its beginnings. Historically, Vallarta Lifestyles has known how to capture the audience and has done it pretty well."

“Vallarta Lifestyles is a platform that allows us to reach the kind of market that we’re looking for. I think that, since its beginnings, 30 years ago, it has been the best publication of the destination. There’s no doubt that part of our success is for the advertising that we have in the magazine.”

“Since its beginnings and until today, the quality in photography and editorial design of Vallarta Lifestyles is unrivaled, because there’s nothing similar in this region of Mexico. Besides, to the foreign community that visit us, this magazine is essential if they want to know what’s new and what’s going on in our destination.”
