Egypt has become the most popular country for New Year holidays among Russians.
Moreover, this direction leads the ranking by a wide margin, leaving Thailand and China, which are among the top 3 popular countries, far behind. Next come Vietnam, the United Arab Emirates and Turkey.
At the same time, the United Arab Emirates was the leader in the new year last year, said Alexan McCarthyan, vice president of the Alliance of Russian Travel Agencies. However, demand for this area decreased after the start of the US and Israeli military operation against Iran in February. And the interest in China among Russian citizens has increased against the background of the extension of the visa-free regime between countries until the end of 2027.
