Tourism Minister Brnjac: Season Could be Better Than 2020’s

As Poslovni Dnevnik writes, Nikolina Brnjac said that she believes that the Republic of Croatia has successfully met all of the preconditions for tourists eager for a holiday following a terrible 2020 to recognise the country as safe for precisely that purpose.

The summer tourist season could be better than last year for Croatian, Tourism Minister Brnjac told Vecernji list on Saturday.

“The good news is coming from Germany, Poland, Italy, the Czech Republic and the Netherlands… which shows that Croatia is high on the list of priorities for their residents when choosing a holiday destination,” said the minister, commenting on forecasts that tourist traffic in 2021 could reach about 60 percent of pre-pandemic, record 2019.

In the latest European Commission (EC) report, she added, Croatia has climbed up and is now among the top 10 most desirable European tourist destinations for travellers this summer.

“This is certainly supported by the announcements of as many as 180 airlines from Croatia’s emitting markets. Especially good news about new airlines is the latest from New York to Dubrovnik. This is a sign that everyone is seriously counting on coming to Croatia this summer. If the epidemiological situation in Croatia and on our emitting markets is favourable, with all the activities we’re carrying out, I believe that we can achieve a better season than the one we had last year,” Tourism Minister Brnjac stated.

“The borders are open, the Safe Stay in Croatia project has more and more users every day, we’ve defined more than 300 points for testing tourists in tourist centres/destinations, which can be found at www.safestayincroatia.hr. We’re co-financing antigen tests for tourists, we’ve started vaccinating Croatian tourist workers, we’ll have special epidemiological data for the islands, and we have launched the Experience local campaign, with which we want to attract domestic tourists as well.

We’re ready for the season, and the epidemiological situation is crucial to that,” Tourism Minister Brnjac stated.
