CORFU. All the indications are that there will be a record number of visitors this year.

The current number of bookings for ferry services to and from Igoumenitsa suggest a boom year for Easter, despite the unpredictable weather forecasts.

Experienced officials from shipping companies have told Enimerosi that there has been a surge in bookings over the past few days, both for tourist coaches and private cars. According to them, there isn't a single available spot left, despite the increase in ferry schedules every year during this period. There is no more availability for vehicles as they are now 100% full, while the number of seats available for individual passengers is extremely limited.

The same sources say that there has been an extremely high number of bookings from tourist coaches, especially from Orthodox countries of the former Eastern Bloc. One shipping company has even requested the addition of two ferry schedules before and two after Easter, as they are considered absolutely necessary due to the high demand.

Igoumenitsa Port Authority has taken all the necessary measures that were implemented last year for the smoothest possible transfer of visitors.
