From July 1, traveling in the European Union countries will be easier for its citizens with a EU Digital COVID Certificate. The digital certificate is to certify the fact of vaccination against coronavirus or the status of the recovered, and thus exempt from quarantine. The eSky.pl report shows that this year Poles planning foreign vacations want to spend the summer in the south of Europe. Ticket prices on the most popular routes went up by up to 30 percent.
The number one destination for Poles is Greece, for years one of the most popular holiday destinations, which in the COVID-19 pandemic was one of the first countries in Europe to announce the lifting of restrictions and a clear plan to open tourism to foreign visitors. “The most popular destinations are Athens, Heraklion and Corfu.
Croatia is another tourist destination from Poland, which has been in the lead for years. So far, however, many compatriots have decided to get there by car. "This year, the number of reservations is higher than last year by almost 20 percent. Most Poles choose Split and Zadar, which is not surprising, since these cities have been besieged by Poles during vacations for years, and airfares remain at a similar level as last year," according to eSky.pl analysts.
Spain closes the podium of the list. The authors of the report remind that it was the hit of this year's May holidays for Polish tourists. Compatriots on vacation this year most often choose Majorca, Alicante, Barcelona and Malaga. "The popularity of Spain this year has caused an increase in airfares - we will pay 45 percent more for a return ticket than last year," the report reads.
