And well, the darling, have gone to go for a drive!.
And well, the darling, have gone to go for a drive!.
The Christmas tourist season proceeds. It is a high time
To bring at least preliminary results of last year - where had a rest
Russians, how much have spent for rest. And to give the forecast - what countries and
Directions will be popular in a year of a tiger.
It appears, 70 percent of Russians have not a rest at all. The reasons
Here different - someone needs to repair apartment, others are dug on
Garden sites, and someone simply in holiday does not go, because on
Idle factories holiday and so every day.
Only 5 percent of Russians went in 1997 on the country.
Much more - 20 percent - went in "near abroad",
As a rule, it is Crimea. But it is average figure. Northern regions migrate
To Yalta and Evpatoria practically with its full complement, and Muscovites prefer
pogorjachee - Turkey, Greece and Egypt. The Russian seaside resorts it is not enough
Are popular. Sochi, for example, has a reputation expensive and unsafe,
The boundary.
5 percent of Russians, including 7 percent have abroad visited
Muscovites, or 900 thousand persons. And from them 100 thousand had a rest in it
Year abroad has more than once. We will try to count, how much money
Has flowed away abroad only from Moscow. On the statistican, average Russian tourist
Abroad spends 1200 dollars. It turns out, billion dollars. These
Money could be proinvestirovany in Russian tourist industry - if it
Was able accept them.
Some words about directions. Turkey has lost the popularity, new
Leaders by quantity of visitings have not appeared. Africa frightened off the high
The prices. Greece, Italy is classics, there went, go and will go.
Some revival is observed on "quiet" routes of Czechia and Germany.
Third of rounds lasted week and less, other third - two weeks,
Third more - longer. But "longer" is days 15-16. Only insignificant number
Tourists went for classical Soviet 24 holiday days. It basically
Those who was treated.
At last, the fact which will set thinking our women: the Russian
Men in zagranpoezdki took twice more often than girlfriends, than wives.
What forecast for 1998? Begun winter tursezon will be at all
Not such roast, as several years ago when planes burst
Wishing to take a breath of air of South East Asia. First, those who could
To pay, have seen enough. Secondly, for the past some years debts on
To the salary have increased, and "new Russian" cannot provide a mass stream.
Interest to the rest houses, despite all lacks has a little grown,
About which we already spoke. As to summer it is possible to predict growth
Interest to Europe. And the pure sea and the tender sun our compatriots
Will search on coast of the North Africa or Adriactic Sea.
Ukraine, Crimea unequivocally become all less attractive,
Because the prices are tightened to world level that you will not tell about
Quality.
It would be desirable to tell about the prices more particularly. Rounds to Thailand rise in price.
If last year the trip there cost 800 dollars, today - to 1200,
And next year the price, under forecasts, will grow to one and a half thousand. It
It is connected with that earlier the Thai tour agencies intentionally reduced the price,
To involve tourists, and now as it seems to them, the purpose is reached. The price
On exotic (Kenya, islands of Atlantic and Indian ocean) will not change,
It about 1500 dollars for 10 days. The prices for rest a little will increase in
Turkey also will fall - in Greece. It too a consequence of a marketing policy of these
The countries. Turkey - 10 days, three stars - will manage approximately 600 dollars
Against 500 before, Greece - 800 against 900. The prices gradually fall on
The Austrian and Italian resorts, for the next year, promise tour operators,
They will decrease percent on 10. But communistic China is firm: as was
1800 dollars for 10 days, and remains.
It is pleasant, that though and slowly, but the, Russian service improves.
Nevertheless, under forecasts, in 1998 of even more people it will be dug
On garden sites. It seems, the tourist boom comes to an end.
Acknowledgement new to volume - interrogation data, when at passers-by on
To the Tver street asked, they know what tour agencies. Practically anybody
Could not name any tour agency and if tour agencies named, not, and
Airlines or systems of hotels. Only 20 percent of Russians in 1998
Will go under permits of tour agencies. The others - "savage" and on a visit.
