How will the prices of holidays in Turkey change by the summer?
Hoteliers in Turkey could double their prices in the spring due to a sharp rise in food and electricity prices.
Domestic tour operators recommend booking tours to Turkey now, while the cost of tours for early booking promotions is at the level of 2021 or slightly higher.
Dunya: “Turkey’s tourism sector, which had planned to increase revenues this year, has been hit hard by higher electricity tariffs. When the cost of electricity for hoteliers increased by 100%, they had to increase the cost of living in accommodation facilities. It is expected that in the coming months the cost of electricity in hotels will increase by another 8%, and rooms – twice.”
President of the South Aegean Association of Hotels and Tour Operators (GETOB) B. Bulbuloglu, costs have increased so much that they no longer cover the established prices for accommodation.
“Inflation also affects food, and we cannot artificially hold prices. “While we expect revenue growth this summer, it will be difficult for us to maintain the profit margin,” he said.
According to the Institute of Statistics of Turkey (TÜİK), the cost of hotel accommodation in January increased by 178% compared to the same period last year and by 87% compared to December 2021.
In 2021, Turkey became the most popular foreign destination for Russians, where about 5 million of our compatriots visited.
