PUJ
I would guess over 90%..............I come into the Customs area arriving and go to the Dominican line. If there are more than 4 people there it is a lot. Other line hundreds.............
I guess in the stats it would be less than 90 % because of all the North Coast cruise ships, sometimes 3 a day... but yes, only daytrip. For sure 90% that stays longer than a week. When i came down here 2001 it was around 65 % of flights that went to POP, Now what, 5-8%? Sad, since I like the North Coast.
Of the current total.... cruise ships are about 1M
So, 7.5M less the cruises..... 6.5M........ 86.6 recurring

Not as many as you might think though.
55+/-% of the total air passenger traffic, excluding cruise ship arrivals, is at PUJ, up through and including September.

Hey Punta Cana is the perfect place for fat pink bodies from Toronto and Minnesota - so please keep them there
Cruise ship passengers technically aren't true tourists. A real tourist is someone that spends at least one night in a place where they don't live. Cruise ship passengers spend every night in the ship.

I said only that at PUJ OVER 80% of the arrivals are Tourists. Nothing to do with SDQ. Comprendi?

So PUJ traffic tourists to Residents are over 80%..............
That's what I was looking for ---- thank you
As for a cruise passenger not being a tourist......... tell that to the gov't
No one said they were not tourists. But they spend an average of about $20 going into town for 4 hours. Tourists coming to PC spend 100 times that...............
I correct myself. I pass on reading long posts, so I missed that...........
