Tourist inflow to Cyprus in the wintertime and perhaps until the coming March will be carried out with scheduled flights as tour operators due to the continuing Covid uncertainty are reluctant to plan any charter flights, Deputy Minister for Tourism Savvas Perdios has said, CNA reports.
Speaking to CNA from Munich, Perdios said this development highlights the need for a targeted promotional campaign with a view to securing existing scheduled flights and stimulate interest for flights from other destinations.
Tourist arrivals in Cyprus in 2020 fell by 84% amidst the disruption created by the Covid pandemic on international travel, mainly due to the cancellation of charter flights from Cyprus’ main tourist markets the UK and Russia.
