Terrorist attacks and state of emergency in Egypt: what will happen to the country's tourist season?

It would seem that everything is returning to normal in Africa's largest tourist destination, but in the midst of preparations for the promising holiday season, several terrorist attacks occurred, which significantly tarnished the season that had not yet begun.The Egyptian authorities were unwavering in their decision and soon after the explosions, a state of emergency was introduced in the country, which is scheduled to expire in July. However, this procedure is unlikely to have a negative impact on the vacation of potential guests, but on the contrary, it will assure tourists that they have nothing to worry about. In Egypt, the state of emergency has become a common thing over the past few years, it has been established and extended more than once. Its harmlessness for travelers is confirmed by the example of Turkey, where this regime was established right in the middle of the summer of 2016. Of course, the likelihood of frequent checks, numerous security and police officers and a kind of curfew - not everyone can put up with such nuances of the resort season. At the same time, this reason will definitely not cause mass cancellations of tours.As for the terrorist attacks themselves, which, as became obvious after last Sunday, have not ceased to be carried out in Egypt, over the past two days there has already been an outflow of tourists. Even before the events of the weekend, Europeans were not particularly eager to go to the country, Russians are holding a grudge over the downed plane, and even the optimistic Ukrainian tourist flow has sharply reduced interest in the destination by 20-30% after the tragic incidents, as stated by the travel company "Let's Go with Us". At the same time, experts are confident that the negative surge will subside in a few days and those wishing to cancel their travel packages will simply postpone the date of arrival in Egypt.
