Russians were told that in 2023 the prices of summer travel to Sochi will increase.
According to the vice-president of the Alliance of Russian Travel Agencies Alexan Mkrtchyan this year a vacation for two in Sochi for 10 days in a 4-star hotel with three meals a day may cost 220 thousand rubles.
Russian tourists can vacation for the same amount of money in Turkey or Egypt. However, this price includes a flight and an all-inclusive package.
A vacation in the UAE could cost 180 thousand rubles for two people, added Mkrtchyan during a conversation with the Izvestia.
The Vice President of the Alliance added that the reason for this was the fall in interest of the Russians in the Crimea, in connection with this holiday in Sochi has increased by 20-30% compared with last year.
