Where Russians are planning to vacation this summer: popular destinations
As the summer season approaches, Russian tour operators are recording high demand for trips abroad. Despite changes in logistics and prices, Russians continue to actively plan their vacations, choosing both time-tested resorts and new destinations.
According to tourism market experts, Turkey, Egypt, and Thailand remain the traditional leaders in demand. These countries offer developed infrastructure and convenient flight options, making them the most attractive choices for family vacations and beach tourism.
In addition to classic destinations, tour operators are expanding their range of offerings in the Persian Gulf countries. In particular, interest in trips to the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain is growing. Tourists can reach these countries via direct flights from airlines such as Aeroflot, Emirates, FlyDubai, and Air Arabia.
The choice of a specific destination today largely depends on the availability of air travel and the cost of tours. Travel agencies note that thanks to the variety of flight programs, Russians still have the opportunity to comfortably plan their summer vacations abroad, despite current international restrictions.
Thus, the summer tourist season promises to be busy. Experts recommend booking tours in advance to secure the best accommodation conditions and more favorable prices for air tickets.
