Details about the Surges:

The government plans to triple the tourist tax as a part of the 2024 budget plan to set expenditures through parliament without a vote before Christmas. This 200 surge funding contributes to the Olympic and public transport for the event.

 

 Government estimates figured out that the triple tax would generate 423 million euros annually. This will surpass 200 million euros which is necessary for funding public transport.

 

The president of GHR is concerned that raising the tax price will lead to a rise the hotel prices and place blame on the industry.

 

Hotels have already adjusted their rates for the Olympic period, spanning from July 26 to August 11.

 

These surge plans possess and unveil the significant increase in public transport ticket prices for the Games by regional authorities, further fuelling public discontent. The regional transport authority plans to nearly double metro fares for single ticket and 10-ticket passes during the Olympic period.
