As a result of the measures that have been adopted in recent months, the number of new illnesses and infected people has decreased significantly. This enables us to travel again on June 3rd, 2020, we are very pleased about that. Travel is finally a need for everyone and for everyone working in tourism, it is also work, confirmation, meeting, affirmation, education, development, satisfaction and much more. Tourism generates more than 18% of GNP in Italy, so thousands of employees in all areas are affected by this activity. We must, of course, exercise all caution and follow the given guidelines. Mouthguards and social closeness are small sacrifices in relation to the grandeur of life. We are therefore pleased that we have regained quality of life through traveling. It will be a pleasure to welcome your guests to "benvenuti" again.
