What with new airline connections, more cruise ships docking into port and demand for hotel rooms, things are looking up for Puerto Rico's tourism industry as the winter season goes into high gear next month.
Puerto Rico benefitted from $198 million in total cruise tourism expenditures during the 2014/2015 cruise year, which in turn, generated 5,209 jobs and $75 million in wages, according to a study released Wednesday by Business Research & Economic Advisors.
