“The cost of accommodating one person for a week in 3/4 star hotels (as of August 1, 2017) with flights, transfers, insurance, boarding (breakfast, dinner) in Russia will cost 35–45 thousand rubles in Crimea and 27–35 thousand . rubles in Sochi. Compare with Tunisia (25–32 thousand rubles), Cyprus (26–30 thousand rubles), Greece (32–36 thousand rubles), Turkey (21–25 thousand rubles), Bulgaria (30–35 thousand rubles ) and Italy (35–45 thousand rubles),” says the Izvestia study.
The author of the publication believes that in order to compete with foreign resorts, the Russian authorities should subsidize domestic flights, which will reduce the cost of holidays within the Russian Federation.
