GOCAL, Airport Showcase Inland Empire’s Tourism Growth
For Ontario International Airport (ONT) and GOCAL (Greater Ontario California), National Transportation Week (May 12-18) and National Travel & Tourism Week (May 19-25) are opportunities to showcase Southern California’s fastest-growing destination: the Inland Empire and Greater Ontario in particular.
Research conducted by GOCAL and Visit California show that travel and tourism spending in San Bernardino County exceeds $5.5 billion, including $1.4 billion in spending at restaurants. Future developments such as the Brightline West high-speed rail system and planned expansion of the Ontario Convention Center will only enhance the region’s marketability.
“The word is out: The Inland Empire and Greater Ontario are the place to be when it comes to experiencing what Southern California has to offer,” said Michael Krouse, GOCAL CEO. “Our location, our great natural amenities and the investment that has been made in creating a vibrant and dynamic destination are attracting millions of people a year and creating a buzz around the U.S. and around the world.”
