The SPEL hopes to increase tourism activity in Lanzarote
More tourists, including those from the UK, could be able to visit Lanzarote villas over the rest of the year, if deals involving the Society for the External Promotion of Lanzarote (SPEL) are granted.
The organisation is hoping to sign a total of eight agreements with tour operators across Europe to aid tourism to the island for the remainder of 2011.
For one, the SPEL are in talks with British operator Cosmos so that they can determine the airline's promotional plans in regard to Lanzarote.
Similar methods are also being sought out by Irish firm Sunway, so that it can boost the number of people that it carries to the Canary Island hotspot.
Both Thomas Cook Holland and Norwegian Air Lines are hoping to increase their services bound for Lanzarote in the latter months of the year.
The SPEL's proposals come soon after the Canarian Institute of Statistics, ISTAC, acknowledged that 75,966 Brits visited Lanzarote in June 2011, an 18.7 per cent increase from the number of UK tourists who visited the destination in the same month of 2010.
