A guest who decides to use the Fortuna system when buying a tour, chooses a region/city, star category of the hotel, type of food, tour duration and departure date. The name of the hotel the tourist will be told only upon arrival. According to tour operators, such offers are 10-30% cheaper than standard tours. This Fortuna system of selling tours has been long working in many popular foreign destinations.

"The Fortuna system is formed on the basis of mini-hotels and guest houses, of course, operating legally. This is the launch of the automated billing, which helps to ensure 100% occupancy of the accommodation facilities with maximum economic effect. At the same time, the guests are offered lowest price. Today, according to the Fortuna system, the cost of living in Crimea starts from 300 rubles ($ 4.3) per day, and this allows tourists to have an inexpensive vacation here", — explained Vadim Volchenko.

According to him, to date, 90% of the accommodation offers has been booked in Crimea, while vacant rooms can still be found in almost every health resort or hotel.

"We also work with the owners of accommodation facilities to prevent price increases. In general, a number of tour operators in the 2020 season prepared more than competitive offers for accommodation in Crimea. For example, a tour for two with air travel and accommodation in a 3* hotel may cost up to 25 thousand rubles ($ 360) − this is a very competitive offer", — the Minister stressed.
