Bulgaria expects 1.2 mln tourists during holidays | ||
Friday, Dec 11, 2015 | ||
“We have grounds to believe that around 1.2 million tourists will visit Bulgaria during the holidays,” Bulgarian Minister of Tourism Nikolina Angelkova said commenting on the winter tourist season in an interview with Nova TV. “The information about early bookings and initial figures provided by the resorts and the airports show that we can expect a 5% - 7% growth this season. The seasonal flights at Sofia Airport have been increased from 80 last year to 178 this year. The airports in Varna and Burgas report an increase compared with last year, too,” the minister explained. “There is also some 8% increase of the flights from Russia, which proves that more Russian tourists are heading at the Bulgarian market. We work out special conditions for the Russian tourists – the sector is in charge of the tourist packages, while we are in charge of the procedures connected with the visas,” Ms Angelkova commented further. The minister added that more visa centres could be opened, if needed. “There are 21 visa centres currently but we are ready to include additional social groups for free visas, in case of higher tourist flow,” she explained. Minister Nikolina Angelkova also commented that the number of Bulgarian tourists was expected to report an increase, too, though a smaller one – between 2% and 3%. |
