Experts have found out where "all inclusive" is more profitable
The analytical service of the Association of Tour Operators has calculated the average cost of a weekly trip in the summer to the Russian and Turkish south in hotels of different categories for two adults.
Travel to Turkish hotels three stars with all inclusive in the summer cost less than Russian. Hotels of the Krasnodar region, working with this system, at an average price were close to Turkish counterparts in June and August (the difference in price was 2.5 thousand rubles), and the separation of Turkey from the Crimea was more serious.
Tours to the Crimea and Krasnodar Krai without food cost less than Turkey: the average cost of travel to Russian resorts was 30-40 thousand rubles, and the Turkish offered rest at a price of 55-60 thousand. Tours with the all-inclusive system cost 55-68 thousand rubles (Turkey), 59-70 thousand (Krasnodar Territory) and 66-75 thousand (Crimea).
Four-star hotels in Turkey were cheaper than Krasnodar Krai and Crimea. The price gap between Turkey and Krasnodar Krai was minimal in June. And in Crimea, it increased and by August reached a peak - 73% is not in favor of the Russian Federation. Rest on the all-inclusive system in a 4-star hotel in Turkey cost an average of 63-75 thousand rubles, in the Krasnodar Territory - for 67-96 thousand, in the Crimea - 90-130 thousand.
Travel to hotels 5 stars Krasnodar region in August cost 209 thousand rubles. The Crimean tour with the same conditions was more expensive than the Turkish trip. The biggest price gap was in July, when the Crimean “five” with all inclusive cost 95% more than hotels in Turkey. Crimean trip - 195 thousand rubles, in Turkish - 101 thousand rubles.
The Turkish all-inclusive scheme develops in large facilities, and its economy depends on the number of rooms and guests, when there are many, then costs decrease. Since there are many hotels in Turkish resorts with 500-600 or more rooms, this system is cheap relative to the price of accommodation.
Turkish "all inclusive" is cheaper for local hoteliers and because of the long season from April to November, as large hotels open. The South of Russia is in an unequal position with Turkey: the swimming season is limited to the time from late May to mid-September. According to experts, the "climate advantage" allows hotels in Turkey to hire more workers in the season.
