Aeromexico passengers applaud rescue workers to Colombia
An Aeromexico plane became the scene of a gesture worth telling this Wednesday. According to Arecoa, passengers on the flight that took off from Felipe Angeles International Airport (AIFA) bound for Colombia applauded the rescue workers traveling on the same plane to respond to the earthquake. The news is short. Yet it says a lot: solidarity travels too.
I see something here that Dominican tourism should take note of: aviation not only moves tourists, it also moves aid. When a destination or an airline makes it easier for emergency teams to get where they are needed, it builds an image of responsibility worth more than any campaign. Aeromexico showed that a crew can turn a routine flight into a humanitarian bridge.
Those gestures build trust in the industry. If travelers see airlines react fast to a tragedy, the sector comes out stronger. I hope that same energy shows up on every Caribbean route.
