When will the sale of tours for June open?
We want to fly to Egypt in June (at the very beginning), but not a single tour operator has sales for June. Who knows why??? Thanks for the answer.

There are sales, take a closer look. True, not all operators. Go to the combined operator search engine www.ruspo.ru, look at different hotels.

Do you understand well what the weather is like in the summer in Egypt? Maybe that's why TA does not offer this country?
аватар Adam-tour
Poola and what's the weather like there, somehow interesting
аватар irina_1901
Very hot, not everyone tolerates well. Our people have been going to Egypt since November.

Were in September in Luxor it was about 50-hot, by the sea about 40. Choose for yourself.
аватар orhideya21
Normally there in June. We didn't go once.
Yes, a little stuffy. The sea does not have 50, but in Luxor - yes. It is very hot there even in April. And do not forget that the same temperature is transferred completely differently near water and in a city with concrete.

The work of tour operators in Russia has changed a bit. There are fewer people ready for early booking. No one can say what the situation will be in the currency market in half a year. No one buys blocks of air tickets for an unpopular period. All the same, the summer months in Egypt are considered off-season. This does not mean that no one goes there in the summer, but the volume of traffic in April, November and July are completely different.
Now all operators have an emphasis on the period until May. Even with the May holidays, the situation is still not very clear. But there are still offers, do not limit your search to 2-3 operators you know. And when communicating with the tour operator, immediately find out all the points: how and when the tour is redeemed and the ticket is purchased. Otherwise, they can now announce one price for you, and after 3-4 months say that the exchange rate has changed and you need to pay extra ....

choose and read about the hotel on the Internet, especially reviews, and buy a month in June, the heat is up to 45 degrees at the end of March, which is normal.

"Poola and what's the weather like there, it's kind of interesting"
In June last year in Sharm there were:
at night +24...+26C, in the daytime +30...+35C, the sea warms up to +27C by the end of the month.
As a person who was vacationing in Sharm in August at + 40C, it was absolutely comfortable on the beach. I did not feel any discomfort from high temperature either on excursions or at the hotel.
On the contrary, it is more unpleasant to be in Kyiv at +30C than in Egypt at +40C.

Thanks everyone for the advice and replies! As for the weather .. it’s not cool in Turkey in June either, I was in the beginning of June 50 in the sun, 40-45 in the shade ... so I think there is no difference ... It’s not possible to go earlier, only in early June, Egypt to us I like it so much that's why I'm looking at it. and what do you think closer to the summer it will be on sale, now it is, but only Pegasus has it for 11 days ... this is a lot.

In Egypt, the heat is much easier to bear, the humidity is very low here, but in Turkey, it's like in a sauna :) If you transferred Turkey, then Egypt will be paradise.
It's impossible to predict six months ahead. Usually, tours are for any duration, there are no problems. But how many times a week planes will fly in June is now difficult to say without a "myelaphone" or a "crystal ball".

In Ukraine, tours are calculated until the end of September and are actively booked from the new year.
Early Booking Benefits:
1. The price from hotels is lower than the cost in the season by 20-40%.
2. The cost does not increase in any currency, which is very important with the current growth in the exchange rate.
3. You can cancel a trip a month in advance without penalties, i.е. will refund the full cost of the tour to the penny.
4. And if there are unforeseen circumstances (illness, mobilization, court, travel ban) - they also return the full cost of the tour up to the day of departure.

Or you can wait a bit and see what will happen in March according to the proposals. The Russian season in Egypt subsides by the summer. But sales will still be there and there will be no hype. Maybe you should just monitor the situation from time to time.
The fact is that the variety of operators depends on your city of departure, maybe you only have one Pegasus flying?
аватар orbittours.ru
agent_borabora in Ukraine, the rate is one thing, but in Russia, with their rate fluctuations, you need to check with the operator exactly how the payment will be and whether you will need to pay extra later. If you need to pay extra, then the point is in such a booking ....
аватар orhideya21
agent_borabora, what's the early booking from yesterday? They canceled flights for people, practically, for tomorrow, what is there to say about September? Reduced the number of flights per week. The course is moving forward, the additional payments for departure will be huge, no one will convert salaries to the course.
You write: "The value does not increase in any currency, which is very relevant with the current growth in the exchange rate." In autumn for 9 thousand UAH. It was possible to relax in the chicest hotel in Egypt, today - this is the price of a dripping hotel. Tomorrow the rate will rise, it will be more expensive. At the same price in foreign currency, in hryvnia it is 3-4 thousand more expensive. UAH Pay on the spot. How to pay for the tour? It is beneficial only to those who have a salary or a stash in foreign currency. Or huge salaries in hryvnia. There are few such people. The rest of the average tourists will stay at home. Yes, the plane will be filled in a week. But not every day of departures, as before. Therefore, flights were immediately reduced.
аватар agent_borabora
orhideya21, obviously you need an explanation.
So,
1. The cost does not increase in any currency, which is very important with the current growth in the exchange rate. This means that if today you pay the full cost of the selected tour for the summer at today's rate, then the tour will be considered paid and the tourist will no longer pay any additional payments in case of an increase in the exchange rate or an increase in the cost in the currency of the tour.
Do not be misled, there will be no extra charges for early booking and full payment.
As for your phrases:
"They canceled flights for people, practically, for tomorrow, what is there to say about September?"
Cancellation or rescheduling of flights has always existed, regardless of the situation in the tourism industry and in any season. This is a feature of charter flights. The operator guarantees the accommodation of the tourist in the hotel chosen by the tourist, but the departure time has always remained possible to change.
The number of flights was really reduced due to the smaller number of tourists. It was in all years.
But the fact that tourists with early booking will receive a rest in the chosen hotel at the booked low price is supported by the contract.
аватар agent_borabora
Despite the increase in the cost of holidays in the national currency, tourists simply switch to simpler hotels, someone reduces the duration of their vacation, someone stays at home.
But those who are accustomed to rest will still go to rest due to saving their budget.
After all, the number of the rich has not decreased, the number of the poor has simply increased, who rarely had a rest before, and therefore did not affect the industry as a whole.
Tourists stop wasting money on unjustified luxury - this is a fact.

If TO goes bankrupt, it makes sense that people paid for these tours in half a year. They sit at home. I about it. There are exactly as many guarantees to fly away with early booking as when buying a tour 1 day in advance. News Travel tourists also booked in advance. I see no reason to lose money to a tourist by early booking in the current economic and political conditions of our country.
аватар agent_borabora
Not all operators are equally dangerous)
Not a single company in Ukraine has a situation like News Travel has: the money is not their own, but borrowed in a foreign currency loan. The Newzes had no financial backing in Russia, Turkey, Greece, or anywhere else in the world.
The course rose and ate all their profits. Here they went bankrupt.
It is necessary to choose such operators whose financial guarantee is confirmed either by Turkey, or Greece, or England. We all know them.
I would not risk transferring money to other operators for a week, no matter what prices were offered.
аватар orhideya21
NT has been a good, stable company for many years.
Not all managers will send a tourist with the TO, which is reliable for all authorized capitals. The manager is interested in selling even the most "d" and earning money: a percentage for himself and the company. It's all on the personal conscience of each manager. Otherwise, disgusting hotels with dubious cleanliness and quality of services would not be sold to an inexperienced tourist as a wonderful option for relaxation. (albeit for budgetary money, but the tourist MUST be warned about antis anitarianism, poisoning, etc.) What no one does. Earnings are now more profitable for some than interest in whether a tourist will return to you.
This is me to your phrase "we know them all" and "I would not give them money." Other managers gave away and people were left without rest and money. It's not specifically about you, but about all TAs.
аватар agent_borabora
I agree with you that it is often the managers who sell inexperienced tourists 100% indecency from dubious operators.
I am in favor of informing tourists about all the nuances of unjustifiably low prices and the difference between vacations with one or another operator.
Therefore, it is so important to trust your trusted manager.

List of dubious operators in the studio!
аватар agent_borabora
It is not entirely ethical for me, as an employee of the travel industry, to write about such a list in an open forum, which is read by many representatives of the same unreliable operators.
But I can write those operators who currently have stable financial guarantees for their activities, and who have stable foreign partners behind them:
1. Tez Tour - insurance of financial risks to tourists for UAH 50 million. Own offices in all countries to which tourists are sent.
2. Mouzenidis Concern is the largest Greek holding, covering the maximum number of business structures in one: travel, medicine, real estate, education, pilgrimage, etc.
3. Tui is the largest European operator with authorized capital in Germany and England.
