ON A POSITIVE NOTE
FOR GREEK TOURISM


Although the topic of conversation throughout most of the world centres on the credit crunch, depression, recession, and deflation, residents of at least one country are saying "don't mess with my holidays."

A recent poll of over 25,000 readers of a British newspaper found that 92 percent maintained that the financial crisis would have no effect on their choice of destination for their annual holidays, and 96 percent would not even consider downgrading their holiday accommodation.

At the same time, the poll placed Greece in second place in the Best European Country ranking, just falling short of Italy.

This result is seen by travel officials as a sign that the injection of 40 million euros by Greece's Ministry of Tourism in 2008 has been successful.
