Пермь, 2013. 15l c. 8. Kharitonova, N.V. (2013), «Competition and competitive environment of the tourism market (the case of Perm tour operators)», Geographicheskiy Vestnik, no. The Internet survey conducted has shown preferences of Perm Krai residents in choosing tourist international and Russian destinations, the extent to which the international situation influences tourists’ traveling activity, the value of affordable expenditures on international tourism, and the degree of tourists’ satisfaction with the flight geography from the place of residence offered by tour operators. The research provides analysis of the current state of outbound tourism in Perm Krai and evaluates its prospects. The dynamics of average prices on popular summer and winter tours from Perm to Greece and Thailand has been revealed, which demonstrates that the drop in demand on these tourism products slightly depends on the increase of the major foreign currency rates against the ruble.
