Statements on the passport: how Greece will receive Russian tourists in the upcoming season
States, one by one, continue to introduce coronavirus passports at the legislative level. Greece has said that such permits will not be required to visit the country this summer. The relevant official confirmation is the Prime Minister's appeal to the European Commission.Greece, though, hopes that the 2021 season will be much luckier for the tourism industry compared to last year, but no one loses their heads. The Greeks are taking all measures to prevent the spread of the virus. But no one wants to limit the already weak flow of tourists with unnecessary obstacles in the form of "boiler passports".
The greek government's idea is to test only those who have not been vaccinated. Due to this, those tourists who have passed the necessary checks and have the appropriate certificate, will be able to get into the country quickly and without obstacles. This not only significantly increases bandwidth, but also saves scarce resources.
Greece insists that "boiler passports" for European states should have a single format. This will make it as easy as possible for you to cross borders. Greece is not exactly going to require a certificate from visitors, all those wishing to visit the country will have the opportunity to choose which way to use to prove the absence of the disease.
Predictions about the upcoming season leave much to be desired. Yes, world tourism is very slow, but is recovering. Everyone understands that it is simply impossible to recover from the impact of the epidemic so quickly. The behavior of tourists has changed significantly. No one will plan and book a holiday for six months. Therefore, it is no longer possible to make predictions based on old methods.
Amid positive claims, the Greek government announced that 25 million euros would be allocated for the advertising campaign for the tourism industry this year.
