Tiziana FABI / AFP.Italy’s tourism sector is expecting a steep fall in visits this summer and its worst revenue figures in over 20 years, an industry survey found on Thursday.
That translates into a 3.2 billion euro drop in turnover for the industry, one of the engines of Italy’s economy, representing the worst results since 1998, the survey found. “A decrease was expected, but if it continues like this it will be the worst drop in the history of our tourism industry,” said Vittorio Messina, president of Assoturismo, Italy’s tourism federation, which commissioned the survey.
