Unfortunately, tourism, one of the sectors most affected by economic fluctuations, has been hit hard in the last few years. We are working to grow our tourism sector and increase our market share, both through our bilateral relations and with our cooperation partners. Jet2 is one of our most important partners in this sense. As a result of our negotiations in England, direct flights will continue until November 22 this year. We have determined next year's destination promotion campaigns and fair calendar. "We will continue our work throughout the winter season," he said.
