Latvian tourism operator Tez Tour does not plan to resume flights to “third countries” until the end of the current emergency, although formally there is a possibility to organize flights in several tourist destinations.
The company acknowledges that the beginning of the summer tourism season of 2021 is eagerly awaited, and as soon as the epidemiological situation in Latvia fully meets the criteria for safe travel and rest, a flight program to popular tourist destinations will be launched immediately.
“Currently, at a time when the state of emergency is still going on, the strict rules for safe travel to” third countries “adopted by the Latvian government and the Foreign Ministry’s recommendation to refrain completely from unimportant trips / trips abroad – responsibly assessing their need – are in force. This is our unequivocal and firm stance on this issue, and even now, when it is formally possible to organize flights in several tourist destinations, we are clearly aware of all the possible risks associated with travel and their possible consequences, as COVID 19 spreads to Latvia and Europe. It is still a threat to society in the Union, “emphasizes Konstantin Palgov, head of Tez Tour Latvia.
He also notes that the company is fully prepared for the summer season of 2021 and anticipates high demand for long-awaited and constantly delayed trips – in all outbound and inbound destinations. The long-awaited return of the entire tourism industry to its normal professional rhythm is likely to begin in April / May this year, but this process will be gradual in order to be able to meet all customer expectations and provide travelers with the highest level of safety and comfort.
From Latvia, Tez Tour provides flights to resorts in Italy, Austria, Spain, Andorra, Turkey, Greece, Egypt, Cyprus, Bulgaria, the United Arab Emirates, Thailand, Maldives, Cuba, the Dominican Republic and other countries.
In 2019, Tez Tour had a turnover of 39.757 million euros, which is 28.6% more than a year earlier, but the company’s profit increased by 43.3% and was 1.27 million euros.
The sole owner of Tez Tour is Germesinvest SL, a company incorporated in Spain.
