In 2022, the demand for travel to Thailand, India and Sri Lanka has doubled, exceeding pre-pandemic levels. The popularity of destinations is influenced by the spread of remote work and the availability of travel to Asia.
A significant part of the Russians’ reserves falls from November 1 to March 31, 2023 for three weeks or more. In 2021, the duration of the reserves was half that of this year: 5%, in the year before the 2019 pandemic: 4%, Kommersant writes.
Thailand is the most popular destination this year. This may be partly due to the relatively cheap travel budget. On average, according to Ostrovok.ru, Russians pay 4,000 rubles a day for accommodation in this country. For comparison: in the Maldives, a similar budget is 21 thousand rubles per day, in Cambodia – 6.4 thousand rubles, in Sri Lanka – 5.4 thousand rubles.
In September, one fifth of the participants (20%) of the SuperJob study would like to take a vacation in St. Petersburg next year. Women chose this direction much more often than men: 24% vs. 15%.
Other cities where Russians don’t mind relaxing are Moscow, Anapa, Veliky Novgorod, Novosibirsk, Volgograd, Gelendzhik, Yekaterinburg, Pyatigorsk, Murmansk and Kislovodsk.
