Abroad began to relax more often.
Most tourists did not use bezveza with the EU, according to tradition, spent a vacation in the resorts of Turkey. Tourists not deterred the growth of housing prices on average by 15-20%. Representatives of travel agencies said that a good season is associated with the early booking tours in March and also the welfare of the population.
According to the estimates of the Directors of the three tour operators, June-August abroad rested about 15-20% more Ukrainians, compared to the 2016-th year. Season for tour operators so far have been the best since the start of the crisis in 2014.
That summer proved successful, it became clear in the spring. Then the number of rounds according to the system of early booking has already been more than 30-40%. First the travelers were again Turkey. The Ukrainians chose to stay Antalya and also Bodrum, Marmaris, Fethiye.
“The number rested in Turkey in summer have increased by about 25% compared to last year and prices by 15-30%,” — said the expert of the tourism industry.
In 2016, over 1.5 thousand dollars you could spend 10 days together in a five star hotel, on the first line, for example, in Kemer. This year for the same amount it was possible to rest only on the second line in 4 star hotel. But the rise in prices didn’t scare travelers. Note the season in Turkey lasts until mid-October.
The majority of Ukrainians will book the hotels category four or five stars. Only from the capital every day sent eight or nine flights on resorts of Turkey. All the charters were filled to capacity.
This year, the Ministry of tourism of Turkey have retained the benefits of last year for tour operators. Their size is 6,5 thousand dollars for each arriving flight.
On Board should be not less than 100 passengers, – in this condition you can get benefits.
Tours to Turkey is also there. At the beginning of this month in the country you can fly to 4 star hotel, for example, in side – $ 420 for two people for a week. Hotel 3 stars cost $ 600 for two people for 11 nights. Such proposals are now.
But with the European trends the trend was the opposite. Tour operators this summer did not increase the number of flights to Spain, Greece and Croatia. Hot tours in these areas almost was not.
Visa-free regime did not affect the increase in the number of travelers to EU countries, says Volodymyr Tsaruk: “increase in the number of Ukrainians who went to get acquainted with the beauties of the cities of the EU.”
It is also associated with high prices on vacation. For example, in Greece and Spain for accommodation in hotel three stars for one week with half Board must give not less than 1 thousand dollars for two. Mallorca in Spain — 1,5-2 thousand dollars for two.
The complexities arising from the sale of tours to the resorts of Europe – say and problems with travel operator Idriska, which customers have been unable to fly from Kyiv airport to Alicante and Tenerife on August 31. Representatives of the operator accused the carrier, airline, Airlines Dart, and promised to offset the costs.
Why the Ukrainians are actively traveling? The representatives of tour operators said the increase in tourists is associated with the increase in material provisions.
Since the beginning of the year, approximately 44% of employers have increased the salaries of employees, – reported in the report of the company Rabota.ua. The majority of employers intend to increase staff salaries this fall.
Filled was and Ukrainian resorts. In particular, in Berdyansk this year rested about 1.5 million people — said the Director of the tourist information Centre Vladimir Tsaruk.
The biggest emphasis will fall will be made in Egypt, UAE, and holidays in exotic countries such as Sri Lanka and Thailand. Already now there are offers for tours costing 800-900 dollars for two for a week long holiday in Egypt. Suggestions on ski tours traditionally little because of the high prices.
