Domestic tourism flow in Russia amounted to around 50
million people in 2015, which is almost one third population of the country.
In a meeting on the development of domestic tourism in Sochi
on January 5, Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said that the potential
for tourism development inside the country is huge, and that they should use
all the possibilities which are opening for them in the tourism industry.
He opined that the accessibility of passenger shipments
should be ensured, as it is probably the most difficult issue as what regards
to civil aviation and railways.
Since the prices of fuel and leasing services, payments and
the cost of bank credits continued growing, a proposal has been put forward to
additionally support air carriers, which will operate on the most popular
tourism routes.
Last year Russia set a record for the highest inflow of foreign
tourist to the country. It is estimated that over 20 million people visited
Russia last year.
