Despite the ongoing Russia-Ukraine #war over the past four years, Türkiye’s #tourismindustry has repeatedly broken records in visitor numbers and income. Now, Turkish tourism faces a new challenge: The war launched by the United States and Israel against Iran.

Türkiye, one of the world’s leading #tourismdestinations, targets $68 billion in tourism revenues for 2026
Erkan Yağcı, chairman of the Turkish Hoteliers Federation (TÜROFED), said:“We are currently analyzing good, moderate, and worst-case scenarios. We are planning how both the private sector and public institutions should act.”

“Our aim is to navigate this process with minimal damage. During the Russia-Ukraine war, Türkiye pursued a very balanced policy, and the same approach is being followed now,” he added.
Yağcı emphasized that even in the worst-case scenario, Türkiye would be among the least affected countries. “Türkiye has extensive know-how, long-standing international partnerships, and strong public-private sector cooperation. We should also remember that domestic tourism is very robust here. This season, the domestic market will again be strong,” he said.
