Sometimes
appear in the news realities that really puzzle me. This is the fiction story
of an airport who nobody wants, reconverted in tour operator shuttle base camp
and finally sold to some private investors.
The other
day I was listening to the news. They were talking about an airport. When they finished
I took out all the superficial and this was the final result:
First - Building
an airport nobody asked for it. When the airport is in the red they suddenly
are looking for a business plan.
Second - The
business plan? The usual thought...
tourism at rescue!!! Mass or specialised? Are you kidding? Mass of course!
Let’s top up our mountains with a lot of tourist!
Make a deal
with big tour operators! For instance, from England and Russia. Let them keep
70% of margin and, under no circumstances, try to focus on create travel
agencies run by local Touristologists in order to create employee for young
people and services which add value!
Third - When
the airport gives profits sell it to a private investor. This is the last
twist! It seems that they are doing us a favour!!!
Let’s
reckoning...
1) Bad
tourism model.
2) Most of
the revenues for foreign enterprises
3)
Socialise losses and privatised profits
Who creates
this kind of game? What I don’t
understand is the reason these kinds of things are financed with public money.
You know we
are lucky to live in one of the countries leader in tourism knowledge where these
kinds of stories are not possible. Otherwise we could end up as a sort of Marx’s
Crowded Cabin!!!!
