Turkey returns as favorite holiday spot for tourists

The 176-year-old British tourism giant, Thomas Cook, said that the number of tourists increased 11 percent compared to the previous year, noting that Turkey has recovered well after the events of last year.

British tour operator Thomas Cook said that the decline in tour sales due to terrorism-induced fear last year has improved very well and European tourists have recently increased demand for Turkey and Greece.

It stressed that Turkey has recovered very well and has become a favorite spot preferred by customers once again.
 
Thomas Cook CEO Peter Fankhauser said that tourists are attracted and influenced by the quality and value offered in Turkey. The company previously argued that tourists cannot give up Antalya, İzmir, Muğla, Bodrum and Dalaman no matter what happens.

Fankhauser said that German tourists will continue coming to Turkey for vacations.
The sector leaders affirmed that despite their expected cancellations after the outbreak of the tension, sales to Germany still continue, which prove that Germans would not rule out Turkey as their favorite holiday spot.
