AGP Executive Report
Last update: 8 hours agoTourism Numbers Dip: Guam Visitors Bureau says April arrivals fell 28% year-over-year to about 36,818, with South Korea down 46% and Japan down 19%, as jet fuel surcharges, regional uncertainty, and Super Typhoon Sinlaku’s lingering effects squeeze demand. GVB Response: GVB is pushing “protect airlift, keep Guam competitive,” using fuel-surcharge support via the Guam Fair Advantage Program and a Japan-focused “Beyond Summer” push while June looks soft. Weather Watch: A new system, Invest 99W, is developing near Yap but is not expected to threaten Guam; still, spotty showers and unsettled trade winds could linger into midweek. Culture & Tourism Pipeline: Recruitment is open for the relaunched Guam National Indigenous Performing Arts Academy, with no experience needed for performers and cultural ambassadors. Port & Marine Tourism: The Port Authority of Guam is seeking to evict Atlantis Submarines from Harbor of Refuge properties after lease disputes. Heritage Spotlight: Memorial Day tributes are shifting to Asan Bay Overlook with luminaria honoring WWII Guam service members.
