Tour operators note increase in booking vacations in Crimea

During the first months of 2013 sales of Crimean tourism products have risen by almost 80% compared to 2012.

This has been announced by director of travel company «Laspi» Mrs. Yelena Bazhenova: «From the beginning of the year Crimean tourism product sales have grown significantly, but it is too early to say that in this season the sales will increase. We can only fix today's figures, which show the interest for early booking of vacations in Crimea. I have to admit that Crimea was not quite ready for that interest. Because as of today a number of emblematic accommodation objects have not yet determined neither the prices, nor their sales policy.» These growth trends are confirmed by the Association of Crimean resorts.
