Turkey loses out in popularity on German market
Turkey appears to be losing in popularity to rival Spain as a potential destination for German holidaymakers, the latest monthly FVW Giata destination ranking shows. In December 2005, Spain maintained its position as the leading destination with 24.7% of enquiries compared to 22.9% during the same period 12 months earlier. Majorca rose to 6.5% from 5.6%, and the larger Canary islands all grew slightly. Second-placed Turkey, in contrast, dropped to 9.7% of enquiries last month compared to 13.9% in December 2004. The Turkish Riviera fell to 8.5% from 12.3%. Egypt maintained its third position with a stable 8.4%, Germany grew to 7.9% from 5.1% and Greece continued its improvement moving up to 5th place (4.7%). The FVW Giata destination ranking is a travel demand indicator showing the volume of enquiries by some 16,000 German travel agents and electronic booking tools in the Giata database of 60,000 hotels offered by 75 German tour operators.
