Record tourist season in Sardinia. But patchy. In some areas the pre-pandemic figures have been surpassed, in others not. And for 2022 there will be a boom.

The councilor for tourism Gianni Chessa is convinced of this, as announced during a meeting at Elmas airport on the analysis of the flows of the 2021 tourist season.

"We focus on beauty and the sea - explained Chessa - but we can go further. Religion, archeology, sports, congresses, food and wine, congresses: these are the sectors we are focusing on. And we are sure that investments in major sporting events have already produced results. And that others will produce as many people who have known Sardinia have assured them that they will return. The goal is to exceed this season's numbers ".

In the coming days, news on services on the air routes of territorial continuity. Volotea president Carlos Munoz announced them in connection from Spain. "We are working - he said - and we are ready to communicate some of the solutions we are about to adopt". The most important problems concern the definition of the issue of unaccompanied minors, the transport of patients on stretchers and radiopharmaceuticals.

Munoz also spoke about the cost of transport: "For Sardinia it is a fundamental question - he said - and I understand the single rate, but I think it is a missed opportunity. Now, for example, flights at lower rates than the single rate are on offer. . We have offered a discount of 12 million to the Region but it is not logical that market dynamics are not taken into account, for example for flights on Sundays or in the period of August ".

SAMPLE FAIR NODE - Torpedo of the Regional Tourism Councilor on the state of the Cagliari Trade Fair: "It looks like a refugee camp - he said during a meeting with tour operators at the Cagliari airport business center - it looks worse than a camp Rom. It gives the feeling of a bombed-out structure. Instead, just travel and discover that elsewhere the situation is different. Don't be offended by anyone, but this is the situation ". The invitation is to plan initiatives and investments to improve the hospitality scenario in Sardinia. "There is a redevelopment project - replied the president of the Chamber of Commerce Maurizio De Pascale - we think that in any case that could also be the ideal place to enhance the waterfront".
