Will tour sales begin after coronavirus outbreak is brought under control?

As the whole world fights the coronavirus outbreak, some countries are showing promising signs that the outbreak is slowly coming under control. No doubt the epidemic has also terminated the holiday plans of millions of people. Now, many people wonder when the tourism movement would begin. Here is the first news about the developments on this issue, coming from Russia.

The Russian Union of tour operators (ATOR) has said the first overseas tours after the new type coronavirus (Kovid-19) pandemic are planned to start on August 1, at the earliest.

While the Turkish tourism sector is having a difficult time as the covid-19 pandemic has caused the opening of the summer season to be postponed, a statement came from Russia that will interest the sector.

One of Russia’s biggest tour operators sent a message to their agents that the sale of overseas tours could start from August 1, according to a statement from the Russian Union of tour operators Ator. Ator stressed that tours postponed due to the pandemic could also be shifted to dates following August 1. Ator said tours inside Russia could start from July 1, according to Sputnik.

If this promising forecast eventually comes true, millions of travelers waiting for the season to open will certainly be very happy. In fact, Turkey was expecting many tourists to fly over this year and among those British tourists seem to have quite a majority as observed in forums and group pages on social media. So, a solid development in this regard would certainly be welcome by all those waiting the season to be opened.
