The official also pondered the importance of tourism in relations between Russia and Cuba, and classified it as \u201ca bridge of exchange between sister nations.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"es\" dir=\"ltr\">Ma\u00f1ana,18 de abril, regresan los turistas rusos a Varadero.

In addition to AZUR Air, other airlines such as Aeroflot, Rossiya, NordWind and Royal Flight will also fly to the Matanzas beach resort, as a result of the negotiations carried out by the Cuban delegation at the Moscow International Tourism Fair, held last March.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to a schedule released by the Cuban Airports and Aeronautical Services Enterprise (ECASA), Royal Flight should begin its flights to Varadero on Thursday, April 22, while NordWind will start on Saturday, April 24, although this planning may be modified due to adjustments carried out by the airlines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Russian tourism to Cuba registered an increase of close to 30% in 2019, when the island received almost 178,000 visitors from that Eurasian country, a figure cataloged as a record for that market that has become one of the emerging issuers to the island.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Cuban Ministry of Tourism estimated that in 2020 the number of Russian visitors would reach 200,000, but the coronavirus pandemic paralyzed the global tourism sector for several months and blurred the recovery plans and eventual growth on the island.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the end of that year, the Eurasian country was placed among the top 10 issuers of visitors to the Caribbean nation, with a total of 47,742 travelers, despite the travel restrictions imposed by COVID-19. Official figures detail that so far in 2021, more than 14,000 Russian travelers have vacationed in the different tourist destinations that are operating in Cuba.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span
