After the downing of the Russian jet it looks like the first retaliation has started, over 4 million Russians went to Turkey last year, they are now being urged not to go and travel agents are considering their position! Could some of them end up in Cyprus? :pint

It would depend of local Cyprus prices; so far turkish all-inclusive was cheapest deal for them - their ruble is plummeting last years.

I find it quite incredible that with the world on the brink of what could be a major conflict people are actually thinking that this is a good thing for Cyprus because we will get more tourists......you really do need to consider the bigger picture because if this goes pear shaped then the lack of tourists will be the very least of your problems.....

I suspect sentiment, animosity towards Turkey, and feel-safe factor will count for more than just low prices. Cyprus is very well placed to take up the slack. This morning I was talking with someone with connections to the travel trade and he was telling me that many local hotels are already sold out for next year.
