German tourists’ strong demand for Egypt, Turkey continues in March

German tourists continued to show strong demand for travel bookings to Egypt and Turkey in March, according to tourism portal FVW. “Egypt maintained its comeback of the last year with strong double-digit growth for both Hurghada and Marsa Alam. The main Red Sea destination airport saw a 44% [y-o-y] rise in bookings.” Marsa Alam saw a 46% y-o-y rise, “indicating good demand for holidays further south on the Red Sea coast.” Thomas Cook’s summer bookings for Egypt from the UK and Germany are also up 40% y-o-y, as we noted earlier this week.
