A presentation of Sochi's tourism opportunities was held in the Bahraini capital Manama. The start of flights to the Russian resort is scheduled for June 3. Flights will be operated weekly on Airbus A321 aircraft.
"The first flights are in high demand, and bookings are ahead of other destinations. As of May 26, there are no more than 20 seats left," - сообщил генеральный директор туроператора "Свой ТС" Сергей Войтович.
Tourists from Bahrain are interested in various aspects of recreation in Sochi, including the availability of halal restaurants, the quality of hotels, shopping opportunities, as well as mountain recreation and hiking. So far, the flight program is designed until mid-September, but it may be extended on a year-round basis due to the interest of Bahraini tourists in the snow.
