Austria is the only country internationally, which is directly connected to 21 Greek destinations
Greece remains at the top of the preferences of Austrian tourists in 2023, with the course of bookings showing particularly positive for the autumn as well.
This conclusion came from the contacts of the Austrian EOT Service with Austrian agents and executives of Austrian Airlines, who participated in a familiarization trip (fam trip) organized from September 19 to 24 in the western Peloponnese by TUI Austria in collaboration with the specific Foreign EOT service and the support of Austrian Airlines and Grecotel.
As emphasized in a relevant EOT announcement, the fam trip was entitled “On the way to Olympia” and it was attended by 80 representatives of leading tourist offices from Austria and Slovakia, making it the largest TUI trip in terms of the number of participants of Austria after the pandemic, which underlines the leading role of our country in the Austrian market. Two days of the trip were dedicated to workshops, during which the organizers and their partners presented their product, while the Austrian EOT Service developed the possibilities that the Peloponnese offers to visitors with an emphasis on environmental protection and sustainable tourism development. The program also included introducing the agents to tourist facilities in the area, a guided tour of ancient Olympia and its museum, as well as a sea tour of the western coastline of the Peloponnese.
It is noted that Austria is the only country internationally, which is directly connected to 21 Greek destinations (Athens, Thessaloniki/Halkidiki, Kavala, Volos, Skiathos, Skyros, Preveza, Corfu, Kefalonia, Zakynthos, Araxos, Kalamata, Rhodes, Kos, Karpathos, Samos, Lemnos, Mykonos, Santorini, Heraklion, Chania).
