The Croatian Tourism Association (HUT) on Tuesday welcomed the establishment of the Istria County Tourism Commission, saying that to maximise results in tourism this year it is key to ensure at all levels quality monitoring of the situation and to prepare and respond quickly to the arrival of tourists.
"It is important to involve tourism experts in communication and activities coordination with the Istria County civil protection authority so that the public and private sector could make decisions in coordination. The commission will also suggest additional measures to support tourism at the local and national level, and it will contribute to activities of the Istria Tourist Board on the market," HUT director Veljko Ostojic told Hina on the occasion of the commission's establishment.
Cancellations of peak season and postseason bookings rare
Ostojic is also, in addition to several tourism experts from Istria, a member of the Commission, and when asked if there were any forecasts concerning the arrival of foreign and domestic tourists to Istria, he told Hina that the further developments depended on the epidemic situation.
"We cannot draw any conclusions about this. What we know now is that cancellations of peak season and postseason bookings have been rare, and we are seeing an increase in the interest of those who have booked their holidays regarding the way they can enter the country and the opening dates for facilities," Ostojic said.
He underscored that everyone in tourism was ready to offer services of maximum quality as soon as formal and market requirements for opening the facilities and the arrival of tourists have been met. (Hina/FaH)
