Tourism sector flexes its muscles
Many hotels are already booked for this Semana Santa. The average occupancy rate for all Spanish hotels is 78%, which is a 10% increase year to year.
Further, beach tour guides have already sold out through the end of the year as companies in the hospitality sector keep boosting their sales and flexing their muscles, because they are proud to be the most important job creators in the country right now. Measures such as the flat tax for self-employed workers and increasing flexibility in the workplace have fueled the industry's success, ultimately driving other sectors in the economy to increase productivity and quality.
