Travel market experts state that the industry as a whole is ready for new working conditions, but there are some concerns. Let us remind you that as of November 15, outgoing tourism tour operators will be held responsible for not transferring data to the “Electronic Tour” information system.
According to ATOR Deputy Chairman Artur Muradyan, almost all of the 400 companies working with outbound tourism have passed the testing regime and are ready to operate the system. Tour operators spent from 500 thousand to 2-3 million rubles on the connection.
