KINGSTON, Jamaica, Gleaner - Visitor arrivals fell by six per cent in 2012 but new Tourism Minister Shawn Crockwell is confident Bermuda can bounce back this year and cash in on a number of market opportunities.
Crockwell, whose One Bermuda Alliance has been in power for just under four months, told a news conference on Tuesday that visitor arrivals dropped from 655,000 in 2011 to 615,000 last year.
Air arrivals fell by less than two per cent, but cruise arrivals, after a record high year in 2011, saw a nine per cent decline because of 20 fewer ship calls.
