The local media in Puerto Rico have reported on several visits that Balearia’s executives have made to the Puerto Rican town of Mayagüez, where they met with the local authorities and the consul of the Dominican Republic to finalize the operational details.
Throughout 2023, Balearia’s employees have been constantly visiting Puerto Rico.
Since August 2023, they have held meetings with the providers of logistical services, movement and transportation of cargo, fuel suppliers and customs officials among others. They have also made the relevant visits to the local ports of both territories where they will have to carry out certain adaptation works to ensure the docking and undocking maneuvers, as well as to ensure the correct loading of the merchandise on the ferry.
