Management can Pull off Crisis-laden Egyptian Tourism Sector, Experts
The Egyptian tourism industry has seen tremendous growth in the past few
years and is expected to continue to grow at a fast pace in coming years
too. But the ongoing global financial meltdown has posed a challenge before
the Egyptian economy, including its tourism industry, the biggest source of
foreign currency for the country.
The current financial crisis is taking the whole world in its grip,
including Europe, a major source of tourists for Egypt. Economic crisis has
constricted the disposable income of Europeans, and thus, they are staying
away from leisure activities like tourism. And Egypt is feeling the heat of
this crisis. It is expected that the country will see a decline of around 10
to 15% in reservations for this Christmas against last Christmas.
According to our new research report, "Egypt Tourism Sector Analysis",
tourist arrivals in Egypt are expected to grow at a CAGR of nearly 6% during
2008-2012, whereas between 2003 and 2007, tourist arrivals grew at a strong
CAGR of 16.63%.
Thus, coming years will prove quite intimidating for the Egyptian tourism
industry. However, the impact can be considerably cooled down by following
proper management approach.
According to a Senior Research Analyst at RNCOS, "Egyptians are not
considered on the higher end of valued commodities in terms of services and
goods. It means that the country should focus more on mid-level tourism and
eco-tourism against five-star quality services. And as recession is
deepening, tourists are searching for cheaper and affordable alternatives
for vacations, such as Basata - a cheap tourist place on Sinai Peninsula.
Egypt is among the lowest cost tourist destinations on the Mediterranean
coast. So currently, the country is at the lower end of mass tourism, and it
can take full advantage of this strength by giving increased stake to local
communities in the tourism sector and thereby generate more revenue from
it."

status and future outlook of the growing tourism industry of Egypt. It gives
