For the last month the tourist market of Russia has left a number of tour operators. Suspended their activities, including large and well-known companies - some of them sent Russians to rest for decades.

In connection with the current situation, we asked our subscribers in social networks a reasonable question: did you have a desire to travel independently because of the " for mass bankruptcy of travel agencies?

The majority answered in the affirmative: 44% of respondents had the idea to try themselves in the role of an independent tourist. At the same time, half of this number will not resort to the services of travel companies during the next trip, while the other half still fear self-booking and still continue to use the services of travel agencies.

Another 29% of the respondents traveled independently and did not resort to the services of tour operators and before the mass closure of companies. Thus, 51% of respondents plan to rely on their own resources to plan their next trips.

The remaining 27% were not intimidated by the mass closure of travel companies: just over a quarter of respondents plan to continue using the services of tour operators.
