The many people visit travel agencies on New Year eve. They want
to spend the New Year and Christmas somewhere in Armenia or out
of Armenia.
For example, many people now visit "Levon Travel" agency. "They
prefer to spend the holidays in abroad, particularly they want to
spend the holidays somewhere in the South - Dubai, Egypt, etc", told
the employees of the agency. They also informed that travel prices had
not increased; simply cheap tickets for a tour were exhausted long ago.
"Miatet" agency organizes travels in the Republic and out of the
Republic during the holidays. It is ridiculous that it is more
profitable for the RA citizens to leave abroad than to rest in
Tsakhkadzor, Hankavan or Sevan. According to the employee of the
organization, 100 thousand drams is needed for one person to spend
the holidays somewhere in Armenia for six days. But the holidays in
Arab United Emirates costs 299 thousand drams for 12 days. Majority of
travels prefer to rest in Egypt and Antalya. "It is cheaper to organize
the holidays out of Armenia. 11 days in Egypt cost 487 thousand drams,
while in Antalya - 295 thousand drams", she said.
The director of "Armenian Bureau of Travels" Hovhannes Margaryan
informed "A1+" that few people prefer to spend the holidays in
Armenia. "Russia is our main market", he says, noting that 90 percent
of tourists spend their holidays in Tsakhkadzor.
It should be mentioned, that price of the tickets to Armenia increase
before New Year. You may leave for Moscow for 67 570 drams, but
tickets from Moscow to Yerevan cost 141 000 drams.
