During this summer, the most sought-after destinations in Romania were: the Romanian seaside with 25% of bookings (predominantly the resorts of Mamaia, Eforie Nord, Vama Veche, Olimp, and Costinesti), major cities with 23% of bookings (Bucharest, Brasov, Cluj-Napoca, Timisoara, Oradea), spa destinations with 21% of bookings (Sovata, Baile Felix, Baile Herculane), while the remainder is divided among smaller localities, according to an analysis by the online hotel platform Travelminit.ro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The day with the highest occupancy rate for accommodation units was August 16, 2021, and hotels and villas were the most requested types of accommodation; however, guesthouses were not neglected either, as tourists increasingly seek nature and community-specific attractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Regarding air travel, flight ticket sales this summer approached pre-pandemic levels, although the effects of the pandemic are still evident at the industry level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The company Vola.ro issued flight tickets for nearly 100,000 clients between June and August 2021, a level representing approximately 95% of that reached in 2019 and an increase of over 200% compared to 2020. Nevertheless, over 35% of flights in the summer season were affected by cancellations or flight schedule changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
