The Turkish Statistical Institute (TurkStat<\/a>) recently announced that in the third quarter of this year, tourism income in Turkey has risen by a massive 181.8% following a significant decrease in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Income from tourism<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The country has earned approximately $11.4 billion in the three months from July \u2013 September, which is up from $4 billion last year when all international travel came to a standstill due to the restrictions that had to be put in place for air travel. Before the pandemic, earnings in 2019 totalled $14 billion in the period of July \u2013 September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The TurkStat data revealed that approximately 78% of the income has been generated from foreign visitors but excludes GSM roaming and marina service expenditures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visitor numbers and Spends<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the three months from July \u2013 September 2021, Turkey played host to 13.6 million visitors, which was an increase of 143.4% annually since the restrictions have eased and the coronavirus vaccine program has been rolled out worldwide. 11.5 million (84%) of the visitors were foreigners with the remaining 2.2 million (16%) being Turkish citizens that live abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Official figures show that the individual expenditure made up almost $9 billion of the total income from tourists, with a further $2.3 billion coming from package tours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the third quarter of this year the average spends consisted of $835 per capita, as foreigners spent about $773 per capita and Turkish citizens that now live abroad spent $1,145 per capita.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Foreign visitor numbers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In accordance with the country\u2019s Culture and Tourism Ministry, the number of foreign visitors jumped up 86% from January to September this year when compared to the previous year, reaching a colossal 17.6 million. Although this is a huge improvement on the past year, it does not overtake the numbers in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mediterranean resort city of Antalya<\/a> was the most popular place for foreign visitors and was host to 39% of the visitors which totals 6.8 million. Antalya was closely followed by Istanbul which attracted a 33% share and Edirne situated in the north-west side of Turkey bordering both Greece and Bulgaria welcomed 10%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
