When is the start of charters for Turkish resorts?
The head of Rosturizm Zarina Doguzova said that Rosturizm does not rule out the opening of charter service with Turkish resorts in July.
We hope that our Turkish colleagues will continue this positive trend and at least by the middle of the summer holiday season, by July, our citizens will have the opportunity to go to Turkish resorts.
The head of the department recalled that the decision to resume air traffic with Turkey is not taken by Rosturizm, but by the operational headquarters to combat the spread of coronavirus infection.
Doguzova stressed that the total amount of obligations of travel companies to Russians on tours to Turkey is about 30 billion rubles.
We are talking about about about a million citizens, that is, about a million people have already booked and contributed money for Turkey to some extent.
Russia extended the restriction of air traffic with Turkey until June 21 amid the epidemiological situation in the republic, due to the fact that Russians most often import coronavirus from Turkey.
Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu on the same day stressed that the country has seen a decrease in the daily increase in the number of cases of COVID-19, and against this background, Ankara hopes to restore air traffic with Russia.
