Summary

With the increase in the aging population, the domestic spending is expected to grow as compared to the outbound spending. The total number of inbound trips plunged in 2014 as the arrivals from Russia, its largest source market, fell due to the sanctions and the depreciation of the ruble against the US dollar. Outbound trips grew at a CAGR of 8.68% during the historic period and most of the trips are to the neighbouring countries including Estonia and Sweden.
