Tourism to Egypt and Tunisia is bouncing back, a report by Counter Intelligence Retail (CiR) shows, according to TRBusiness. “Egypt, for example, recorded strong growth of +20.1% passengers in August alone this year, followed by +13.4% increase in Q3 2017. Egypt’s top four airports also handled an additional 810,000 tourists in Q3, compared to the same period last year, states CiR.” CiR President Garry Stasiulevicius says “tourists are returning to the Red Sea, which is good news for dutyfree operators, as well as the entire resort industry.” CiR also expects the number of travelers to Egypt to increase by 8% y-o-y between November 2017 and April 2018.
