Operators expect Japan to grow

08:07, 31 января 2014

The demandfor Japan that had dropped down severely after the devastating tsunami in 2011 is showing all signs of fair growth this year.

 

The head of Japanese department at the Vand International Tour, Ms. Natalia Minorskaya, claims that this spring's sakura blossoming season is going to attract 50% more tourists than a yaer before.  

 

The Varvarka Travel company is, too, optimistic about the destination's performance. However, they don't expect the growth to be as good as last year. "Those who were postponing their trips to Japan in fear of tsunami and radiation, finally gave up in 2013. Thus, the delayed demand. This year the growth is likely to go on but without any spikes," comments the company's expert on Japan. Beside the earthquake, Japan also suffered from economic instability in Russia which made the Russians more cautious about their expenses, including the ones for holidays.

 

Despite a 20% increase in package prices on the destination, the year 2013 turned out to be as successful as the record 2008. In 2013, reports Japan National Tourist Organization (JNTO), 60.5 thousand Russian tourists visited the country - 20.6% more than a year before.
