Tourism in the United Kingdom

More than 10 million foreign tourists have already arrived by air in the Turkish holiday hotspot Antalya this year.

The number of foreign visitors between Jan. 1 and Aug. 22 increased by 20 percent from a year earlier, according to the provincial directorate of culture and tourism.

The World Travel & Tourism Council on Friday called for governments to abandon the concept of "high-risk countries" and instead focus on how individual "high-risk travelers" are treated at borders.

The WTTC, which represents the global travel and tourism private sector, is urging governments around the world to shift their focus from whole countries toward individual travelers. 

Turkey is becoming one of the top destinations for British holidaymakers, according to the United Kingdom’s giant tour operator Thomas Cook.
