Top destinations: Turkey, Sharm El-Sheikh, and GeorgiaThe demand for travel during the Eid Al-Adha holiday,
primarily for tourism purposes, focused primarily on Turkey, followed by Sharm
El-Sheikh and Georgia.
Hala News, reported that Alghalayini said that the failure
to reach the desired reservation levels to two main factors. Firstly, the
immediate connection of high school exams right after the holiday led to a
decrease in travel inclination.
