Tulum tourism industry expansion
Overview
Tulum is implementing strategies to expand its tourism sector through improved international accessibility and niche market development.
In September 2026, officials announced that the Felipe Carrillo Puerto International Airport would expand its international connectivity for the 2026-2027 winter season. Four airlines—Air Canada, Air Transat, WestJet, and United Airlines—are scheduled to begin staggered operations in the final quarter of 2026, providing up to 10 weekly frequencies to destinations in Canada and the United States, including Montreal, Toronto, Calgary, Quebec, and Newark.
Simultaneously, the municipality is focusing on the romance tourism and destination wedding market. An industry event titled ‘The Art of Destination Wedding: Love, Art & Architecture’ is scheduled for October 2 to connect over 100 professionals and suppliers. Local officials aim to diversify the region's offerings, with existing resort packages ranging from symbolic ceremonies starting at approximately $689 to premium packages reaching $19,500.
