Greece Becomes the Most Popular Travel Destination

The peak season on the foreign holiday market starts this week with higher-than-expected bookings, and with the number of passengers exceeding the pre-pandemic peak. The top list of package holidays among Hungarians is led by destinations in Greece, Turkey, and Spain, Világgazdaság reports.
