According to ATOR, until the end of the season at the Turkish resorts rested a few hundred thousand Russian tourists. However, this should not create problems of Crimea and other areas of Russia
The sharp rise in interest in trips to Turkey after the abolition of restrictions on the sale of tours to this country has not yet led to an equally dramatic increase in sales. Due to the lack of charter flights between the two countries and the need to fly a regular flight tours are quite expensive, so buyers are still waiting, said executive director of the Association of Tour Operators of Russia (ATOR) Maya Lomidze.
«The number of queries and requests for orders of more than the actual sales. Those wishing to travel are now much more than willing to spend the money, which is now worth a holiday in Turkey “, – said Lomidze at a press conference in the” National News Service. ” According to her, the cost of a week tour to Turkey with accommodation in three-star hotel of the system all inclusive ( “all inclusive”) is now beginning about 40 thousand. Rub. per person. After running charters, operating authorization which can be given in the coming days, prices may fall by 25-30%, so the cost of this tour will drop to 28-30 thousand. Rub.
With that outlook were ATOR analysts on Monday. The press service of the company noted that the fall in prices “will lead to an explosive demand for holidays in Turkey».
Prevent the Russians to travel to Antalya, Kemer, Side and other resorts are not able to even the threat of a repeat of the recent terrorist attack at the airport Istanbul. According Lomidze, in this sense, the Russian tourists different “rare psychological resistance».
However, on the return to the previous volume of tourist traffic are not talking. On summer vacation, people usually think in February, and most of those who are going this summer to go abroad, according to Lomidze, tickets bought himself before the “discovery” of Turkey. Those wishing to hand over already bought a tour, for example, in Tunisia, and buy a new one will not be much to Turkey, since such a failure would entail financial loss. Analysts ATOR, for the sake of Turkey’s Russians have deposited not more than 1-1.5% of the already paid tours.
As a result of Russian tourist flow will be reduced by several times to Turkey at the end of 2016. “No one millionth stream will not be this year, but hundreds of thousands of Russian citizens will rest on Turkish resorts”, – predicts Lomidze
By comparison. In 2015, according to the Turkish Ministry of Culture and Tourism, Turkey was visited by 3.649 million Russians, and since the beginning of 2016 -. 138 thousand, which is about 83% less than the same period in 2015 (when there were about 802 thousand.)
Big problems for. Crimean resorts and other Russian areas of the “discovery” of Turkey, according to executive director ATOR not create.
«Crimea Turkey can not interfere because they are different products and different customers, they are completely different niches. I do not see any problems for Crimea due to the fact that appeared on the market Turkey “, – explained Lomidze, noting that prices in the Crimea is lower than in Turkey
ATOR representative also expressed the hope. that by the autumn of 2016 on a tourist map can come back and Egypt, flights to which were closed after the death in October of 2015 as a result of
terrorist attack Russian air liner “Kogalymavia.” last week, the General Directorate of Turkish civil aviation informed that charter flights from Russia to resume July 7. At the same time representatives of the tourist industry have predicted that the owners of Turkish hotels to attract Russians offer them lower than last year, prices.
