WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif. (Feb. 22, 2006) -- Pleasant Holidays has teamed up with tourism officials from Cancun, Cozumel and the Riviera Maya, as well as Mexicana and Alaska airlines and the Mexico Tourism Board, to provide travelers with the latest updates on the continuing improvements and beautification efforts underway in the areas affected by last fall's heavy storms and hurricanes.
"As winter turns into spring, travelers are looking to renew their spirits and rejuvenate their souls, and we're seeing a rising demand for travel to the Mexican Caribbean," says Pleasant Holidays President & CEO Tim Irwin.
"Our team of travel professionals has seen first-hand the improvements in these resort areas. The Riviera Maya itself was virtually untouched by the bad weather, while Cancun and Cozumel have made dramatic enhancements to their beaches, resorts and shopping areas. This Mexico playground is back, and better than ever, and our guests should be quite pleased with their new surroundings."
