15-29% increase in tourist influx

Notwithstanding the poor economic conditions, the influx of tourists to ski resorts has increased in 2009-2010 winter season from a year earlier.

“15-20% more tourists flocked to mountainous areas for skiing compared to a year earlier”, Simona Veteleanu, managing director TravelBiz told Wall-Street.

Cristina Irimia (photo), marketing director of J’Info Tours said the demand for late winter deals and the number of tourists has increased by 5% and 7% respectively from the same period of 2009.

As for prices, agencies took different approach. J’Info Tours and Aerotravel left travel packages prices unchanged, while BizTravel is offering 10 to 15% discount on their winter rates from last year.

“Hotels are offering discounted room rates, transport companies cut their fares, while the agency’s fee is now lower”, said the managing director of Travel Biz.
