Cyprus

The tourist season is in full swing...without staff

While we are going through the period with the highest demand for the tourism sector, tourism businesses continue to be plagued by staff shortages.

Air traffic to Cyprus has increased significantly in the first half of 2022 with tourist arrivals in the country exceeding 80% of arrivals in 2019, an excellent year for tourism.

Speaking on the Mesimeri and Kati Show, Chrysaimili Psilogeni, General Manager of the Cyprus Tourism Enterprises Association, states that what we see and what we try to convey to society is that it is not a Cypriot phenomenon but a global one.

It is a fact that has been observed in recent years but has worsened mainly due to the pandemic and the blow it has caused to the sector, he noted.

He added that it is a problem that we have to face and especially in Cyprus there are things that we can do mainly at the political level and not at the business level.

At the moment, some moves are being made on our part to cover the gaps that exist.

Ms. Psilogeni thanked the people who work in the tourism sector who are making extra efforts so that the quality level of the product meets the high expectations that exist.

What we are asking is that the necessary steps be taken to deal with the issue in question, he said in closing.
