He continued, the bad impact of the coronavirus on tourism has been felt since February 2020. This period is often used by tourists to book tickets for summer vacation preparations.
According to him, it happened as a side effect of the coronavirus to a downward trend in tourist numbers in general.
That makes it difficult to predict the performance of tourism for this year.
