President of DIF Cozumel, Mrs. Gina Ruiz de Marrufo, thanked the Grupo Asur for taking these actions and for making this important tourism entrance and exit locale an example for other air terminals.

Mrs. Gina Ruiz de Marrufo said that changes in the infrastructure will facilitate travel and airport access, and that Grupo Asur demonstrated interest and professionalism by providing quality service, as well as sensitivity and social responsibility, for those who require care based on their needs.
