OK, thanks for the link. To ME, you would think that it wouldn't make sense from an economic standpoint, to close all the bars and restaurants when there are still a ton of people in the airport? Especially the bars. Honestly, the price they charge for drinks in airports is robbery, but people pay it anyway.
Well, compare and contrast this sort of policy to having a stranglehold on folks in transit. If SJU committed to keeping international travelers inside the airport and NOT encouraging curiosity and the seeking of services outside the airport boundaries, established hotels, restaurants and tourism/hospitality venues would be screaming bloody murder.
Sound to me like the new airport administration is seeking a sweet spot that will have staying power over a long range contract, and NOT hose either the traveler or the exisitng hospitality infrastructure of San Juan.
