Hello everyone
JM., I am not changing subjects and I know perfectly well how to get from Madrid to Fortaleza, where I have been several times.
Anyway, your computer generated pages full of options are for the most ridiculous routes based in the “code share” and “airline alliances” effect, since TAP has virtually a monopolistic situation.
Michelbush, the flight from Madrid you are referring to was 490 + taxes, but only for 1 week.
Cheap indeed, about 40% discount (another proof of weak demand, don’t you think)
But this is not the issue.
The fact that I mentioned the lack of interest or demand for the MAD-FOR flight after Air Madrid dropped it is simply another warning that there is not as much demand as REAL ESTATE AGENTS SELLING OFF PLAN want it.
By the way, since Michelbush mentioned Club de Vacaciones, they dropped the Barcelona – Natal flight about 2 years ago; again a proof of lack of demand.
This is line with the “Natal Airport issue”.
I repeat it for the record: There is nothing wrong with the Augusto Severo Int. Airport in Natal and for sure it is not saturated, as my figures and calculations in previous post shows.
Only persons with direct interest in the off-plan development in the Brazilian Northeast may pretend that there are not more tourists there now because of the impossibility to cope with more arrivals at the airports….. but …”abracadabra “ “ with the new airport of Natal the hordes of tourist will arrive at once and all the projects will be fully booked for years to come”.
This is scam that reminds me the worst timesharing scams.
You want more alarming proofs of this bull**** ?
Here is one:
Praia de Buzios, 20 Km South of Ponta Negra (Natal). There you have 3 nice Norwegian Resort, newly built staying empty for most of the year.
And when I say empty I mean it: no one but the guards.
Does it means Buzios is a wrong investment? Certainly not!
In fact many well-off Brazilians have summerhouses there and there is already a basic (very basic, for European standards) infrastructure there.
If somebody likes a beautiful and quiet beach very closed to Natal for spending holidays it is a perfect option.
It is probably a very good long-term investment, if the price is right.
But if he or she expects to get any decent income by renting, better forget it because it is not going to happen any time soon, regardless of the stupid expectations some agents have.
And this brings us back to the very first post of “blindness and stupidity when investing in Brazil”: off-plan projects in Northeastern Brazil are for gamblers and an unnecessary option for the average investor. This is a very risky option and very overpriced in my opinion.
There are plenty of offers in the re-sale market; many totally new ready to move in.
And about my sources, JM, just wait and you will get the confirmation in due time: this season did not start well.
Moreover, about your statement “fewer foreign tourist in 2007 but they spend more” is another irrelevant comment of yours. Of course the must spend more due to the rise in value of the Brazilian Real against all major currencies!
