He Transport chaos, whether due to poor high-speed train connections or the lack of air connections, is a burden for event organization businesses.. This has been revealed since the Association of Professional Organizers of Conferences and Business Events of Cantabria (OPCE) in one interview on Cadena SERin which they have warned of the decline in this type of tourism.
“We have nowhere to grab transportation,” lamented its president, Santiago Rodríguez, in statements to the radio, whereThe delay of the train that connects with Madrid has been explained, as well as the “minimal” plane connections. “If you don’t take out far in advance, the prices are prohibitive,” he insisted.

“I, who work for the Santemar hotel, this year they have lost 5,000 reservations in rooms intended for Congress”, he revealed, indicating that this type of tourism is decreasing compared to last year. “Last year, in November, we had 3 or 4 important Congresses, and this year there has been nothing this month. It’s not just how many conferences, but the number of people who attend.”he insisted.
Thus, Rodríguez has insisted that The situation is not the same in neighboring Asturias or Bilbao, where connections are noticeably better.. “Almost always the first thing for Congress tourism is that there be an AVE connection, and here we have nothing of that,” he recalled, while insisting on the luck of having a good lineup of important doctors in Valdecilla, “although “We cannot depend solely on this variable.”
