Russian and Ukrainian arrivals made up some 30-40% of all visitors to Egypt before the war broke out in late February, according to the business newswire and were fixtures of the Red Sea package tour trade. Their loss will challenge the post-pandemic recovery in our tourism industry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>But new and resumed int\u2019l flight routes will help: <\/strong>The <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/acbe142a-7b05-413b-8d71-a09ce7d7113a\">resumption of flights<\/a> between Moscow and Cairo after a brief war-induced pause, as well as limited flights running between Russia and Red Sea resorts, \u201cwill help in regaining some of what we lost,\u201d Shalaby said. New international routes to the Red Sea resort of Sharm El Sheikh could also give tourism revenues a boost, she added. The first direct flight between Tel Aviv and Sharm El Sheikh <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/6df96d11-2109-4e73-b26b-9f0cefeeca87\">took off this week<\/a> after President Abdel Fattah El Sisi and Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett struck and agreement in March.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We\u2019re also reaching out to other European markets: <\/strong>Officials have either lined up or begun talks with Germany, France, the UK, Italy, Poland and Estonia on ways to drive inbound traffic, Shalaby said. The government\u2019s new <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/9010d841-548e-4784-a99c-0935c16891e7\">national tourism campaign<\/a> #FollowTheSun (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=9D9mnVJZkwI\">you can watch the full-length version of the ad here<\/a>) is targeting high-value markets in Europe and the US and has driven a 102% increase in Google searches for vacations to Egypt since its mid-March launch. Egypt has also widened the number of people eligible to obtain a visa on arrival or a pre-arrival electronic visa as it looks to <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/0c8a045a-b44d-4a26-9ae7-d4663f8e552b\">support the tourism sector<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AND we\u2019re looking further afield to plug the Black-Sea-sized gap: <\/strong>Egypt hopes to attract tourists from little-tapped markets in Latin America \u2014 including Brazil \u2014 and Asia in the long term, Shalaby said. The state is also looking to draw in tourists from India, Pakistan, Morocco, Algeria, and Gulf states including Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait, she added.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PLUS- GEM update: <\/strong>The EGP 20 bn Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) is set to launch in the fourth quarter of this year, with the opening to be announced six months prior, Shalaby said. We had previously been told to expect the GEM\u2019s launch <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/91b9c7da-39f4-4422-adb6-3d20f5a2e1a5\">sometime in H2<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>REMEMBER- <\/strong>Tourism receipts (alongside Suez Canal tolls and remittances from Egyptian expats) are a crucial source of hard currency for Egypt.
