GREETINGS FROM THE COMMISSIONER
|
Dear Friends,
The fall is always an ideal time to visit Israel: the streets of Tel Aviv are teeming with outdoor music, art and fashion festivals. Travelers are strolling through the Alrov Mamilla shopping mall and the bazaars of the Old City of Jerusalem. And outdoor adventurists are enjoying ideal weather from the Galilee to the Negev to the Dead Sea.
We had a difficult 8 days earlier in the month, but no flights were cancelled and it was gratifying that close to 100,000 tourists were in the country, and continued their vacations without interruption. Now all is back to normal and the Ministry of Tourism is readying to make a big splash next month in Hawaii at the United States Tour Operators Association convention.
2012 is already the best year EVER for tourism to Israel...and the outlook for 2013 is even brighter.
Thank you for your support, and Shalom,
Haim Gutin
