Turkey Tourism - Resorts fear bird flu crisis will affect tourism industry, reax

Wide shot of volcanoes (tourist attraction) 2. Mid shot of volcanoes 3. Tourists walking towards volcanoes 4. Tourists taking photographs 5. SOUNDBITE: (Italian) Isidea Negri, Italian tourist: "To be honest, if this incident had happened before we came here, we wouldn't have come. If you take into account all the health precautions ,there shouldn't be any problems. We are just simply touring around so there aren't really any risks. We are far from the affected rural areas. We were a little bit worried because we saw some things, such as birds that had been slaughtered. It seems that the rules, as far as hygiene is concerned, aren't being respected. As for the rest, Turkey is just great. The weather is not too bad, if a little cold, being January. We have been to Istanbul; we have been to Cappadocia and will be going back there." 6. Wide of tourists wandering around outside 7. SOUNDBITE: (Italian) Massimo Ginnazzi, Italian tourist: "I would have cancelled my trip to Turkey if I had known that there was a bird flu epidemic. Right now, we are staying in areas that have taken appropriate precautions. But if you go out a little further you can see birds and villages that are keeping birds. We are quite afraid, also due to ignorance." 8. Wide shot of travel agency 9. SOUNDBITE: (Turkish) Bayram Coskun, travel agent: "We hear that a large number of tourists are cancelling their trips to Turkey because of the bird flu here. However our business is not affected that much because we are working with the smaller ones (backpackers). But I presume the big travel agencies will be affected by this a lot. But we don't know how it is going to be yet, we'll see in the future." 10. Coskun sitting at his desk STORYLINE: Tourists visiting the Turkish holiday destination of Cappadocia on Thursday expressed their concerns over the current outbreak of avian flu in the country. "To be honest, if this incident had happened before we came here, we wouldn't have come," Italian tourist Isidea Negri said. Massimo Ginnazzi, also from Italy, said he would have cancelled his holiday if he had know about the bird flu crisis. Cappadocia's unusual miniature volcanoes, where one of the world's earliest communities lived 10-thousand years ago, attracts thousands of tourists every year. But this year, some have cancelled their holidays. Cappadocia travel agent Bayram Coskun said it was too early to say whether significant numbers of tourists would choose other destinations. "I presume the big travel agencies will be affected by this a lot. But we don't know how it is going to be yet," he said. Turkish health authorities raised the number of people infected with the H5N1 virus from 15 to 18, after it turned up in preliminary tests on two people hospitalised in southeastern Turkey and in the lung of an 11-year-old girl who died last week in the same region. Meanwhile, European Union experts urged countries bordering Turkey to step-up checks to prevent the spread of bird flu and prepare measures to control the disease.

The new regulation comes after a record summer of visitors with peaks of over 36,000. Visitors will also have to buy personalized tickets with their names on them, an effort to stop travel groups from buying up tickets to sell at higher prices. The changes are part of an effort to make important tourist destinations like Pompeii sustainable by focusing on the quality of the experience for the visitor rather than on the quantity of tickets sold. Pompeii was destroyed when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 A.D. and is an ongoing archaeological dig with just two thirds of the site excavated.

COVID: CUBA CLOSES BORDER TO TOURISTS
\n --SUPERS--\nPatrick Oppmann\nHavana, Cuba\n\nMarch 22, 2020\n\n --LEAD IN--\nSTARTING TOMORROW (TUESDAY), NO TOURISTS WILL BE ALLOWED TO TRAVEL TO CUBA...\nTHE CUBAN GOVERNMENT IS CLOSING ITS BORDERS TO COMBAT THE SPREAD OF CORONAVIRUS ON THE ISLAND - WHERE ONE FIFTH OF THE POPULATION IS 60 OR OLDER. \nCNN'S PATRICK OPPMANN REPORTS FROM HAVANA.\n\n --REPORTER PKG-AS FOLLOWS--\nPatrick Oppmann: "The Cuban government has announced a series of tough new measures to stem the spread of coronavirus on this Island. Starting on Tuesday Tourists will no longer be allowed to travel to Cuba. If you are a Cuban citizen or like me, a resident of Cuba, when you get to the airport, if you're traveling here, once you arrive in Havana or any other part of this Island, you'll be sent to go to 14 days of quarantine at a Cuban hospital or an institution like that. You will not be allowed to go to your house. You have to go and spend 14 days under lock and key of quarantine and the government says they hope by limiting the number of people entering the island that they will also limit the amount of coronavirus that has been brought here. The first cases that the Island has announced, they said came from tourists who are coming from abroad that had been sick, perhaps didn't realize they were carrying coronavirus beyond, but then managed to infect other people here. So the idea is for 30 days Cuban officials will be able to focus on the cases that are already here. And we've seen a sudden growth over the last few days of the cases on the Island and that by wiping out the cases of coronavirus that are already on the Island, that they will keep it from spreading further. Cuba has a number of vulnerable people, at risk people. 20% of this Island is 60 years or older. Many people have health problems here. There's a high group, high number of people who smoke here that have diabetes and other diseases that do make you more vulnerable to Coronavirus. A lot of people use public transport. When you go to markets, people tend to line up for hours or more to buy the few items that you find here. So there -- if there was an outbreak here, it could be very, very serious. Cuba is not just focusing on coronavirus here, but on the region and around the world. They are sending doctors as far away as Italy to help other countries combat the spread of coronavirus. Residents that I've talked to here - while they are aware that of course by limiting tourism, by cutting off tourism, that that's going to have a big impact on Cubans that have restaurants, that have Airbnbs, that work in hotels, but many of the Cubans that I've spoke to have said, these are necessary measures that the spread of the virus here would have such an impact if it got out of control. So even though that these measures are going to have a big impact on the economy, many people I've talked to said it was the right thing to do. Their only concern is whether the Cuban government has acted soon enough.

Wide of Pantheon STORYLINE: More than half of Italian households are staying at home for their summer holidays this year, according to recent research. The data, based on interviews with 1,300 families last June (2010), shows that Italians are being cautious with their money, and that 60 percent of households sampled have opted for a 'staycation' instead of going abroad. The findings have been jointly published by socio-economic institute Censis and Confcommercio, the representative body of Italian businesses operating in commerce and tourism. Of those who said they are not going on holiday, 95 per cent admitted they are doing so to save money. "Staying in town is fine. At least we're not locked up in the house with the blinds down," said one Italian enjoying a 'staycation' in Rome. "Fewer holidays, less money. It's the crisis," another Italian commented. According to the research, 83 percent of those leaving their homes will stay in hotels, bed and breakfasts or temporary accommodation, while 17 per cent will go to their summer houses. Almost a quarter of those questioned - 22 percent - will go away for a week. "In general, the tourism market is struggling at the moment, not so much for those coming here. It's more about those leaving Italy to go abroad. Travel operators are feeling the crisis, it's not easy right now," said Italian travel agent Silvia Strampelli. The findings come as fears grow over debt levels and economic growth in large European nations, including Italy - made worse by Standard and Poor's downgrade of the US credit rating on Friday night. The European Central Bank (ECB) has so far been reluctant to intervene in the large Italian and Spanish debt markets, as it has previously done for Greece, Ireland and Portugal - the three eurozone countries that have already been bailed out. But Luc Coene, the head of Belgian's central bank and a member of the ECB's decision-making board, said on Friday that the ECB may be prepared to help Italy and Spain once the two countries have taken more concrete steps to get their public finances under control.
