Popular tourist destinations in the year.

Krasnodar region in the 2017 season - number one direction

Moscow, May 30, federalpress. The most popular tourist destination among Russians in the summer of 2017 is the Krasnodar region. This was announced during a briefing in the National News Service (NSN) executive director of the Association of Tour Operators of Russia (Ator) Maya Lomidze.

"Russia is leading in the list of the most popular tourist destinations. Krasnodar region in the 2017 season - number one direction. People ride in Sochi. In second place - Crimea. The average price increase in Russian resorts is 15%, and we observe some stagnation of demand. I note, in the last year, 15 million people rested in the Krasnodar Territory, and if the result could be repeated, the region will take the same Russians as in the aggregate of the 10 most popular foreign resorts, "said Lomidze.

"Among the departures this year, Turkey leads. In second place - Greece, on the third - Spain. These two countries can be said, fight for second place. In the fourth - Cyprus, on the fifth - Bulgaria, "added the head of the ator.

According to Lomidze, with the emergence of Turkey on the tourist market, the demand for Tunisia significantly decreased. Nevertheless, the country in which the ancient city of Carthage is located, still remains in the list of 20 of the most popular destinations.

We must say, Turkey has become a record holder to reduce prices on the tourist market for Russians this year. The country located immediately in two parts of the world suggested vouchers cheaper than was once in Egypt, with which Russia has no direct message. As an example, Maya Lomidze led May, when in Turkish resorts it was possible to spend a week for only 10 thousand rubles with food. Now prices are of course higher. On average, a week of rest will be around 25-30 thousand rubles per person in a three-star hotel with a nutrition through the "All Inclusive" system.

"Turkey has never been so cheap, as now. True, it is worth noting that the other our foreign parters prefer not to raise prices in foreign currency for Russian tourists. For example - Czech Republic, "explained Lomidze.

The average cost of weekly holidays in the segment of organized tourism is 40 thousand rubles. At the same time, the price category is different everywhere - there are tours for both 20 thousand rubles, and for 60 thousand.

Lomidze notes that the demand is growing not only to Turkey. This year, one of the very popular directions even in the summer, despite the rainy season, is Thailand. Now there is a decline in prices, and people prefer to relax in Southeast Asia. Thus, there is a possibility that by the end of the year there is 1.5 million Russians there, whereas before the crisis there on average there was no more than a million per year.

In addition, the demand for the Dominican Republic grows. This is a rather uncommittent direction. However, the head of the ator announced from the next week an increase in the number of flights to this country of the Caribbean.

There is an increase in and on expensive European directions. Despite the terrorist attack in Manchester and the complex procedure for obtaining a British visa, the demand for the journey through Misty Albion this year has grown slightly. This is due to the fall of the UK national currency rate - pound sterling.

Ekaterinburg, December 14th. / TASS /. The largest part of the tourist vouchers acquired by residents of the Ural Federal District in 2018 are Turkey. Rest in this country chose about 1 million Uraltsev, President of the Ural Tourism Association Maxim Puzankov reported on Friday.

"If we take the top directions in 2018, then the first place in the number of tourists who bought batch tours took Turkey. She is leading among other areas with a large margin. Total if we take Koltsovo Airport and other points of shipment from the Ural region, For the first time we approach the number of 1 million tourists, "said Puzankov at a press conference in the Ural Regional TASS Information Center.

The average cost of the tourpacker to Turkey was 38 thousand rubles, which is only 4 thousand rubles more than last year, the Puzankans noted. "The rise in the ruble value is almost equal to the difference in the fall of the ruble exchange rate - this is about 13%. To say that prices have increased in Turkey or you can not go to Turkey," he explained.

Also, Russia, Thailand, United Arab Emirates and Vietnam, added to Uraltsev and Vietnam, also added from Uraltsev. "The cost of Turpakets in Russia also did not increase and averaged 18,382 rubles, [while] last year - 18,275 rubles," said Puzankov.

The expert predicts that next year the competence of the current top directions will be Egypt. "We expect the return of Egypt in 2019, based on this certain adjustments in all directions. Egypt will affect everything at all," he is sure.

On air traffic between Egypt and Russia

The flight agreement between Egypt and Russia was discontinued in November 2015 after the crash over the Sinai of the Russian airline "Kogalymavia", flying from Sharm-Esheikh to St. Petersburg. On board were 217 tourists and seven crew members, they all died. FSB qualified what happened as a terrorist attack.
