Almost 100,000 Romanian tourists are expected to ski this winter in Austria’s Salzburg and Steiermark alone, one of the most important ski regions of Austria, including 25 resorts under the name of Ski Amade, according to Austrian tourism officials.
“Against last winter season, I believe we will have a 27% increase in the number of Romanian tourists, considering more Romanians came this summer than we’d expected and prices stayed at last year’s level,” stated Cristoph Eisinger, managing director with Ski Amade association.
The resorts were last winter visited by 1.3 million tourists, of whom 0.6% Romanians, according to the data provided by Cristoph Eisinger.
“(…) Most Romanians coming to ski in Austria get here in their personal cars, but not Dacias, but luxury brands such as Audi or BMW,” says Martin Zeppezauer, managing director of Gastein ski region.
He also said most Romanians choose to stay in four-star hotels in Austrian ski resorts and on average spend one-week holidays.
A Romanian tourist going to Austria to ski spends almost 1,000 euros, a sum including accommodation, meals, the ski-pass, according to Zeppezauer.
