On the night of May 4, the curfew expired, which lasted for 3 days. On May 1, residents of the provinces, where most of the country's population lives, were allowed to go only to the nearest shops from 9 am to 2 pm, and the rest of the time they must stay at home. For violation of self-isolation, a large fine was introduced (about 35 thousand rubles at the exchange rate).
Against the backdrop of forced measures to contain the spread of the coronavirus, an advertisement appeared on social networks that the Rixos Premium Belek hotel is looking for 15 volunteers who can wait out curfew in the comfort of the hotel to test the new service rules after the pandemic.
Guests were promised VIP service and maintenance, with almost all infrastructure closed except for the heated pool. Reporters suggested that the stay of the guests at the hotel is connected solely with testing new rules in the service sector.
Reporters interviewed hotel staff. According to them, Rixos Premium 5 * really already works according to the new rules: with an overestimated observance of sanitary standards and other preventive measures in the recreation area, which protects guests from any possibility of the spread of infection. However, paying tourists who want to spend time comfortably during the quarantine period rest here.
Experts predicted that domestic tourism in the country will begin in June, and in the second half of summer - external tourism.
