It\u2019s business as usual for our tourism sector, despite Gaza war: <\/strong>Tourists have continued to arrive in Egypt in greater numbers than last year since the war in Gaza started seven weeks ago, defying pessimistic outlooks that accompanied the conflict.<\/p>\n

The figures: <\/strong>Almost 1.5 mn tourists visited the country in October, up 8% y-o-y, while arrivals in the first three weeks of November were 5-10% higher, Tourism Minister Ahmed Issa said at a press conference yesterday. <\/p>\n

Defying predictions:<\/strong> Israel\u2019s declaration of war on Hamas last month brought with it a downbeat outlook for Egypt\u2019s tourism sector, with several booking agencies reporting a spike in cancellations<\/a> and warnings from onlookers, including from IMF head Kristalina Georgieva<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Our 15 mn target is still in sight: <\/strong>\u201cWe should be able to achieve our objective or be as close as possible to our objective of bringing in a record 15 mn tourists this year<\/a>,\u201d Issa said. Arrivals during the first 10 months of the year saw a 30% increase from the same period in 2022. Bookings for November and December are on track to reach their normal levels after a brief hiccup triggered by the war, the minister said.<\/p>\n
