300,000 Serbs PAID FOR THEIR SUMMER HOLIDAY: Multiply this by 300 euros, you do the math!
As tradition says, and this year's most popular destinations are Greece, Turkey and Bulgaria, but among Serbian tourists hot-spots is Spain
Aleksandar Seničić, the director of the Association of Travel Agencies JUTA, points out that currently more than 50 percent of the summer arrangements are sold, writes the Informer.
- It is expected that for the upcoming summer, at least 600,000 people travel through travel agencies, and the most popular places are Halkidiki, and Ionian Islands like Corfu, Lefkada and Zakynthos - he says.
As anticipated, Turkey and Bulgaria sell well, but much to surprise, Spain is becoming more popular among the Serbs.
- For the past seven or eight, Bulgaria is one of the top destinations because of its proximity and low prices. A number of our people have chosen more expensive variant as the island of Mallorca in Spain, which requires about 500 euros per person - said Seničić.

On the other hand, some destinations have lost their popularity. For example, Egypt, Cairo, the Valley of the Kings and Tunisia, primarily because of safety, Serbs are no longer interested.
When it comes to transportation, tourists mostly hit the road with their own car or with the agency's transportation, while about 100,000 of them decide to travel by plane.
