Over 6.4 million Russians will spent the vacation abroad this summer
According to preliminary forecasts by ATOR analysts, this summer the volume of outbound tourist flow to popular foreign tourist destinations will grow by 24.8% year-on-year.
Space Travel notes that early booking of summer vacations this year is almost twice as successful as last year. The growth in demand for foreign vacations is due to several factors at once: the strengthening of the ruble that began in the spring and cheaper air travel to many popular destinations.
Turkey is in first place in the summer TOP-10. Turkey accounts for more than two-thirds of all summer sales for the largest tour operators. Next come Abkhazia, China, the UAE, Egypt, Thailand, Vietnam, the Maldives and Indonesia.
The largest increase in the tourists’ number is expected for three mass outbound destinations:
Vietnam (+140%, due to the establishment of charter programs and new regular flights)
Egypt (+45%, due to the expansion of flight programs of tour operators)
China (+25%, due to the growth of regular transportation volumes by almost 60%).
