If August is the month for the people’s bathrooms, as the late Andreas Papandreou used to say, then what is July? We will comment on one of them, always based on the traffic we recorded in… ports, airports and tourist offices in our area!
Let’s go to first Araxo side, where the July one is already recorded spectacular 20% increase in flights compared to June, which practically translates to an average of 3,500 additional people in our area. As reported in the newspaper “Peloponnisos” the airport master Giorgos Gouvitsas: “Him June we had 91 flights and the July we will have 109to which, in fact, we should also add several private planes that will land in our places”. G. Govitsas reported that we already have arrivals from Israel and in fact every Thursday and Sunday there will be flights to and from Tel Aviv. “In our area we are also waiting over 10,000 Romanians” revealed the airport master of the civil airport of Araxos, “and a total of over 4,000 Latvians and Lithuanians. THE an increase from Romania and the Baltic countries is of the order of 130%!». For the record, within July they are expected flights also from Poland, Belgium, Austria, Germany, Slovakia, Czech Republic and Italy. It should be noted that there will also be flights on weekends, with origin Czech Republic, Lithuania, Slovakia, Israel and Germany. “We are at a very good level and have managed to be high in flight preferences, offering high level security and reception services” remarked G. Gouvitsas.
And at shipshowever, the movement was dramatically increased in June and as port agents report “in July we will see even more people traveling to and from the port of Patras”. The most popular destinations are the Ionian Islands and of course the ports of Italy and following the first week of July we will have a clear picture of arrival and departure numbers. “The traffic to Kefalonia and Ithaca is a little better than last year at the same time, while the traffic to and from Italy is at approximately the same levelshe stated the president of the Association of Tourist Offices of Western Greece and experienced shipping agent Giorgos Telonis and added: “We hear that lines to Santorini or Mykonos are not going as well as expected. Perhaps the fact that we had both Easter and the feast of the Holy Spirit late, in time, has influenced this. The situation, however, seems to be normalizing since the end of June and we are optimistic that during July things will be clearly better.”
Finally, the traffic at the travel agencies in our area is going from good to better, with the people of Patrina showing a special preference for this way of escape this year. “Despite the unbearable heat that prevailed throughout June, people traveled,” he told “P” Giorgos Spyropoulos from the tourist office “Rania Tours”. “We observe tremendous mobility and we must focus mainly on what the world is asking for many cruises. Indicatively, we should mention that the destinations Parga-Paxos-Antipaxos are in demand. All packages are closed and you can no longer find a place, except through cancellationsadded the experienced travel agent. It should also be noted that the packages they include also have their due excursions to Monemvasia-Mani-Elafonissos, Skiathos-Kamena Vourla-Lihadonisia, Spetses, Hydra, Lefkadawhile always Tinos is high in preferences. And because the performances in the ancient theater of Epidaurus also begin, the tourist offices organize excursions for the specific destination as well. Of course, Albania is also highly preferred, not only by Albanians who live in our area, but also by Greeks who wish to visit the shores of the neighboring country.
