At the Uitt International Tourism Fair held in Ukraine. The Montenegrin delegation held numerous meetings with officials, tour operators, media and business partners from Ukraine, including representatives of airline associations and tour operators Aviareps, where they discussed opportunities for further promotion of the destination on the Ukrainian market.

- I see that there is a huge interest of Ukrainian citizens to come to Montenegro during the summer. I am very glad that the fair was successfully organized, over 30 countries are present. I am glad that three Ukrainian airlines will start with 12 flights a week to Montenegro from various Ukrainian cities from June 1. I hear that Montenegro is one of the favorite destinations of Ukrainians. We had a pretty good presentation. I am sure that Montenegro will be one of the favorite destinations of Ukrainian citizens this summer as well - said Djurovic.

Svetlana Tomković, manager in the National Tourism Organisation, said that the attendance of the Montenegrin stand at the fair was extremely high.

- What makes our visitors especially happy are the open air connections to Montenegro. Also, they do not need a visa to come to us, nor a PCR test. All this gives us the right to have positive forecasts for the season - said Tomkovic.

The market of Ukraine is important for Montenegro, considering that it is among the most represented in terms of the number of realized overnight stays when it comes to European countries. In 2019, Montenegro was visited by about 57,000 tourists from Ukraine who spent about 463,000 nights. Tourists from Ukraine take the fifth place when it comes to overnight stays of foreign tourists during 2019. The main motives for visiting our destination by Ukrainian tourists are swimming, vacation and sightseeing, and the average planned stay in Montenegro is 10.03 nights.
