The number of Russian tourists inbound to the U.S. has grown 20% from 2006 to 2007 due to several factors, including:

* the falling U.S. dollar - U.S. vacation spots are perceived as a better vacation value than Europe and Asia

* a continuously growing middle class with disposable income is looking for overseas destinations to visit

* experienced travelers who have gone to Asia and Europe are looking for alternative destinations

* the visa process is significantly faster (currently averaging 7 days) and easier.

Do not miss this opportunity to advertise your offering and attract the growing number of Russian tourists to your destination
