“Long weekends are a great opportunity to organize another short vacation within Russia. Most of the tourists will go to the Krasnodar Territory, the Moscow region, Moscow and St. Petersburg. Many tour operators are already seeing tourism activity in terms of for booking tours for the long weekend in February”.
It is noted that there is a demand for hotel vacations, ski tours and sightseeing in Russia. Although the trend to reduce the depth of selling continues, market participants expect a peak demand for the February weekend a week or two before it begins.
On the February weekend, many Russian hoteliers raise prices by 10-20 percent compared to the pre-holiday period. It is true that the increase in price is uneven. Basically, the price increase occurs in the ski areas. Tourist destinations practically do not raise prices.
Remember that this year, the February weekend for Russians will last four days – from February 23 to 26.
