Argentinean tourists can now fly into Samana, on the northeastern coast, directly via charter from Buenos Aires. Andesmar Airline arrived early this month with 150 tourists from the Argentinean capital. The tourists will be staying at Bahia Principe hotels in the province. They flew into the El Catey International Airport, located on the western side of the peninsula. Argentinean tour operators Erovips, All Seasons and Business and Travel are marketing the sun-and-sand excursions with stays at all-inclusives in Samana. Mercedes Moreno, north coast sales director for Bahia Principe said that the direct flight is a major success for the Bahia Principe hotel chain operations in the region that has 957 hotel rooms.
