The Secretariat of State for Tourism already has at its disposal the drafts of hygienic-sanitary measures for the reopening of eight tourism subsectors.

Each establishment develops its own contingency plan, complying with the minimum requirements for proper operation. A committee must be formed with the objective of defining strategies to minimize risks.

Customers and suppliers must be informed of the measures that affect them, such as the use of masks, hand washing, safety distance, etc. To this end, the service conditions and preventive measures must be explained to the customer before confirming the reservation.
