And Turkey remains the most popular destination for the May holidays
Compared to 2022, the sales of tours for the May holidays this year increased by more than 1.5 times. This is due to the fact that in 2023 there are more available destinations for recreation. Such data was presented on March 31 at a press conference with the participation of representatives of the tourism industry.
“After the earthquakes in Turkey, sales to this country decreased, but it still ranks first – it's about 30%, – He told & nbsp; the managing director of the travel agency group Yevgeny Danilovich. & nbsp; & ndash; & nbsp; Russia (24%) in second place, compared with 2022, this is 1.5 times growth. In third place is Egypt (20%), followed by the United Arab Emirates – about 15%. Thailand, Mauritius, Maldives and Abkhazia – it's already a small amount. And yet we see that the «depth» bookings for the May holidays we are growing & nbsp; – now it is about 50-54 days, when, for example, in January the «depth» was twice as small.
Experts suggest that summer holidays in the resorts of Sochi in 2023 will rise in price by an average of 30%. In particular, prices for accommodation in four- and five-star hotels have already increased. For example, a vacation in Sochi for two for ten days will cost the same as a vacation in Turkey or Egypt.
