Dar El Salam

DESTINATION

Staying in Aziziyyah, a suburb of Makkah, before the Hajj starts allows you to take a break from the busy and hectic environment near Masjid Al Haram, conserve some energy for the days ahead and prepare your heart and mind for the momentous journey of Hajj. If your package includes a stay after the rites of Hajj are complete, then it provides you with a great opportunity to reflect on Hajj, on what you have achieved and how it will change your life going forward. An additional plus point is that Aziziyyah is within the Haram boundary of Makkah, which means that those staying there will still be getting the reward of their prayers being multiplied by 100,000.

The travel and tourism sector in the arab world amidst the biggest crisis the sector faces in its history.

arab travel and tourism aziziya

Joint statement by the Arab Tourism Organization, the Arab Civil Aviation Organization and the Arab Air Carriers’ Organization

The travel and tourism sector is facing a crisis that has not been witnessed in its history, due to the spread of the COVID-19 epidemic. This crisis is threatening the loss of more than 75 million jobs globally supported by this vital sector, which is considered one of the basic sectors of the economy contributing by 10.4% to the global GDP.

In the Arab world, so far, millions of reservations done with airlines and at hotels have been canceled in various countries, the flood of tourists to the world's leading Arab touristic destinations has stopped, thousands of flights of Arab airlines have been canceled, and 800 aircraft belonging to those airlines have been parked at airports. In brief, this vital sector, which represents an average of 14.2 percent of the GDP of Arab countries, lost from the beginning of the year until late March 2020, about USD 25 billion in tourism receipts, USD 8 billion dollars in revenue loss for Arab airlines, and USD 12.96 billion in tourism investments. Most importantly, this crisis is threatening the loss of about one million permanent jobs and hundreds of thousands of seasonal jobs in the Arab world that depend for their livelihood on the travel and tourism sector.

Therefore, recognizing the size of this crisis and the role of the travel and tourism sector in sustainable development and in order to help jumpstart the economic  contribution of the sector when this crisis is over, God willing, the Arab Tourism Organization, the Arab Civil Aviation Organization and the Arab Air Carriers’ Organization decided to establish a regional strategic team that includes representatives of the three organizations and other stakeholders in the travel and tourism sector in the Arab world to develop a series of measures and action plans that would support the return of this sector to play its natural role in sustainable development and to encourage Arab governments to adopt those measures as soon as this crisis ends.

The three organizations believe that it is necessary for Arab governments to adopt some steps that would help in jumpstarting the economic contribution of the travel and tourism sector at the end of this crisis. Those steps are in line with the resolutions of Arab Summits issued since 2001 to date, and that emphasized the support to the tourism sector. The most important steps are as follows: •    To provide tax exemptions to the relevant sectors for a period of at least two years. •    To approve rescue plans and financial stimulus for the relevant establishments to ensure the continuity of their workforce in order to provide a social safety net, in addition to providing for them a quick return to work as soon as this cloud passes. •    To request lenders and service providers to provide a grace period for the institutions concerned before resuming payments of their dues. •    Airport operators and air navigation services providers to exempt airlines from paying aircraft parking fees and also canceling or reducing other airport and airspace user charges for a sufficient period of time to enhance the touristic appeal to Arab destinations. •    Governments to compensate the new additional costs that relevant establishments are bearing and that relate to the containment of the virus and sterilization procedures. •    Governments to cancel or simplify visas as much as possible, as well as reducing or eliminating visa costs. •    Governments to reduce “unnecessary barriers” at ports and airports. •    Governments to reducing taxes on travelers such as air travel and hotel accommodation taxes. •    Governments to increase budgets for promoting touristic destinations.

The three organizations also called on governments to give the travel and tourism sector all the privileges that the industrial sector gets, as it is an engine for all other industries directly or indirectly, in addition to providing grants and financial facilities for small and medium-sized companies.

The three organizations confirmed that a working group has been formed to manage the tourism crisis in the Arab world, including a number of their Excellencies, tourism ministers, in addition to the three organizations, in order to follow up the developments and find solutions to all problems that may arise as a result of this crisis. The three organizations also confirmed that joint workshops and training courses will be held as soon as the crisis ends, at the will of God Almighty, for those concerned in travel and tourism to overcome the effects of losses and to promote this major sector.

The Arab Tourism Organization, the Arab Civil Aviation Organization and the Arab Air Carriers’ Organization hope that the spread of the epidemic will be contained with minimal damage to people’s health first and a rapid return to stimulate the economic cycle for the benefit of all people.

It is worth noting that resolutions of Arab Summits issued from 2001 to 2019 that aimed at supporting the tourism sector have included considering tourism a strategic sector that is granted all credit and tax facilities enjoyed by export sectors. The resolutions also supported inter-Arab tourism and attracting more foreign tourists to the Arab region,  in addition to liberalizing air transport between Arab countries, and working on establishing the principle of equal treatment of Arab tourists as compared to nationals and not to distinguish between them in the prices of hotels, tickets, and fees for touristic sites and attractions. These resolutions have also instructed the Council of Arab Transport Ministers to accelerate the development of an Arab agreement for the transport of passengers by road between Arab countries, to discuss possible means to reduce the requirements of entry visas for Arab nationals, to facilitate granting visas and ease restrictions on their duration by expediting the introduction of the necessary automated linkage systems.

** This statement was issued by Dr. Bandar bin Fahd Al Fuhaid - President of the Arab Tourism Organization, Eng. Abdulnabi Manar - Director General of the Arab Civil Aviation Organization, and Mr. Abdul Wahab Teffaha - Secretary General of the Arab Air Carriers’ Organization.

قطاع السياحة والسفر في العالم العربي في ظلّ أكبر أزمة يواجهها القطاع في تاريخه

 بيان مشترك للمنظمة العربية للسياحة والمنظمة العربية للطيران المدني والإتحاد العربي للنقل الجوي

  

يواجه قطاع السياحة والسفر أزمة لم يشهدها في تاريخه نتيجة لإنتشار وباء فيروس الكورونا المستجد، حيث يتوقع أن تؤدي هذه الأزمة إلى خسارة عالمية  بأكثر من 75 مليون وظيفة يدعمها هذا القطاع الحيوي الذي يعتبر من القطاعات الإقتصادية الأساسية مساهماً بنسبة 10.4 بالمئة في الناتج المحلي الاجمالي العالمي.

وفي العالم العربي ألغيت ملايين الحجوزات حتى الآن لدى شركات الطيران والفنادق في مختلف الدول، وتوقف التوافد إلى المقاصد السياحية العربية الرائدة عالمياً، وألغيت آلاف الرحلات لشركات الطيران العربية، وتوقفت 800 طائرة تابعة لها في المطارات حتى الآن. وبإختصار فإن هذا القطاع الحيوي الذي يمثل كمتوسط 14.2 بالمئة من الناتج المحلّي الإجمالي للبلدان العربية قد خسر منذ بداية العام وحتى أواخر مارس 2020، حوالي 25 مليار دولار أميركي في ايرادات السياحة و8 مليار دولار اميركي كخسائر في ايرادات شركات الطيران العربية، و12.96 مليار دولار أميركي في الاستثمارات السياحية، والأهم من ذلك هو تهديد خسارة حوالي مليون وظيفة دائمة و مئات الآلاف من الوظائف الموسمية في العالم العربي تعتمد في معيشتها على قطاع السياحة والسفر.

 لذا، إدراكاً من المنظمة العربية للسياحة والمنظمة العربية للطيران المدني والإتحاد العربي للنقل الجوي لحجم هذه الأزمة ولدور قطاع السياحة والسفر في التنمية المستدامة وفي تحفيز النموّ السريع للقطاعات الإقتصادية الأخرى بعد انتهاء الأزمة الحالية بإذن الله، قررت المنظمات الثلاث تشكيل فريق استراتيجي إقليمي يضم ممثلين عنها والمعنيين بقطاع السياحة والسفر في العالم العربي للنظر في سلسلة من التدابير والخطط العملية التي من شأنها دعم عودة هذا القطاع للقيام بدوره الطبيعي في التنمية المستدامة وتشجيع الحكومات العربية على تبنيها فور الخروج من الأزمة.

وترى هذه المنظمات انه من الضروري قيام الحكومات العربية بتبني بعض الخطوات التي من شأنها المساعدة في إنطلاقة سريعة للمساهمة الاقتصادية لقطاع السياحة والسفر عند انتهاء هذه الأزمة والتى تتماشى مع قرارات القمم العربية والتى صدرت منذ عام 2001 حتى تاريخه حيث أكدت على دعم القطاع السياحي، ومن أهم الخطوات المقترحة هي: •    تقديم إعفاءات ضريبية للقطاعات المعنية لمدّة سنتين على الأقل. •    اقرار خطط انقاذ وتحفيز مالي لمؤسسات ذات العلاقة لضمان استمرارية كوادرها الوظيفية في العمل وذلك لتوفير شبكة امان اجتماعية، اضافة الى توفير عودة سريعة للعمل فور زوال هذه الغمة. •    أن تطلب الحكومات من المقرضين وموردي الخدمات توفير فترة سماح للمؤسسات المعنية قبل استئناف تسديد مدفوعاتهم. •    أن يقوم مشغلو المطارات ومقدمو خدمات الملاحة الجوية بإعفاء شركات الطيران من دفع رسوم إيواء الطائرات وأيضاً إلغاء أو تخفيض الرسوم الأخرى لاستخدام المطارات والمجال الجوي لفترة طويلة نسبياً لتعزيز الجاذبية السياحية للمقاصد. •    تعويض التكاليف الإضافية الجديدة على الشركات المعنية التي تتعلق باجراءات الاحتواء والتعقيم. •    إلغاء تأشيرات السفر أو تبسيطها قدر المستطاع فضلا عن تقليص التكلفة او الغائها. •    تقليص "الحواجز غير الضرورية" في الموانئ والمطارات. •    تخفيض الضرائب على المسافرين مثل ضريبة السفر جواً وضرائب الإقامة في الفنادق. •    رفع ميزانيات الترويج للأماكن والمقاصد السياحية.

كما دعت هذه المنظمات الحكومات الى إعطاء قطاع السياحة والسفر كافة الامتيازات التي يحصل عليها القطاع الصناعي كونه محرك لكافة الصناعات الأخرى بشكل مباشر أو غير مباشر، بالإضافة إلى تقديم منح وتسهيلات مالية للشركات الصغيرة والمتوسطة.

وأكدت المنظمات الثلاث بأنه تم تكوين فريق عمل لإدارة الازمة السياحية في العالم العربي ضم عدد من أصحاب المعالى الوزراء المعنيين بالسياحة بالإضافة للمنظمات الثلاث وذلك لمتابعة الحدث وايجاد حلول لكافة المشاكل التي قد تطرأ جراء هذه الازمة، وبأنه سيقام ورش عمل ودورات تدريبية مشتركة فور انتهاء الازمة بمشيئة الله تعالى للمعنين فى الثلاث قطاعات لتجاوز أثار الخسائر وللنهوض بهذه الصناعة الكبرى .

 وتأمل المنظمة العربية للسياحة والمنظمة العربية للطيران المدني والإتحاد العربي للنقل الجوّي أن يتم احتواء انتشار الوباء بأقل ضرر ممكن على صحة الناس أولاً والعودة السريعة لتحفيز الدورة الاقتصادية لما فيه خير للناس جميعاً.

 والجدير بالذكر بأن قرارات القمم العربية التي صدرت منذ عام 2001 وحتى 2019 بهدف دعم صناعة السياحة فقد اشتملت على اعتبار السياحة صناعة استراتيجية تمنح كافة التسهيلات الائتمانية والضريبية التي تتمتع بها صناعات التصدير، دعم السياحة العربية البينية وجذب المزيد من السياحة الأجنبية إلى المنطقة العربية، تحرير النقل الجوي بين الدول العربية ، والعمل على إرساء مبدأ مساواة السائح العربي بالمواطن وعدم التمييز بينهما في أسعار الفنادق والطيران ورسوم المواقع والمزارات السياحية، وتكليف مجلس وزراء النقل العرب بالإسراع في وضع اتفاقية عربية لنقل الركاب براً بين الأقطار العربية، وبحث الوسائل الممكنة للحد من اشتراط تأشيرات الدخول للمواطنين العرب، وتقديم تسهيلات ملموسة في منح التأشيرات وفي مدتها، من خلال الإسراع في إدخال أنظمة الربط الآلي اللازمة، وتكليف وزراء السياحة والإعلام العرب بالتنسيق فيما بينهم للقيام بحملات مشتركة، لإبراز الصورة الحضارية والإنسانية للعرب والمسلمين عالمياً، وتنشيط وتطوير حركة السياحة إلى المنطقة العربية وزيادة فعاليتها ، دعم التنمية السياحية العربية والتكامل السياحي العربي، التأكيد على دور مؤسسات التمويل العربية والإقليمية في تمويل إعداد دراسات الجدوى الخاصة بالمشروعات السياحية العربية المشتركة تشجيعاً للقطاع الخاص على الاستثمار فيها، تقرير واقع السياحة في الدول العربية ومتطلبات تنشيطها ومقترحات تطويرها ، الموافقة على الإطار العام للاستراتيجية السياحية العربية ، توفير المناخ الملائم للاستثمار في القطاع السياحي لتشجيع القطاع الخاص العربي على زيادة استثماراته في القطاع وتنمية وتأهيل الكوادر العربية المشتغلة في صناعة السياحة ، والموافقة على مبادرة التكامل بين السياحة والتراث الحضاري في الدول العربية.

** صدر هذا البيان عن الدكتور بندر بن فهد آل فهيد - رئيس المنظمة العربية للسياحة، والمهندس عبدالنبي منار - المدير العام للمنظمة العربية للطيران المدني، والأستاذ عبدالوهاب تفاحة - الأميـن العام للإتحاد العربي النقل الجوي.

He noted that this year's competition witnessed significant participation throughout the 30-day nomination period that began on December 1, 2023. "Many Arab tourism entities were nominated for the awards whose judging committee was chaired by Dr. Lamiaa Mahmoud from Egypt."

The Arab Union of Tourist Media announced the winners of the Arab Tourism Media Awards for 2024 during a press conference at the International Tourism Exchange in Berlin (ITB) held last March, where 34 Arab personalities, tourism institutions, and cities were honoured.

The Union revealed that Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Morocco, Kuwait, and Iraq secured the highest number of awards in the Arab Tourist Media Awards for 2024, with participants from all Arab countries.

The Arab Tourism Media Awards is one of the most prestigious ceremonies in the Arab world, honouring individuals, institutions, and media outlets that contribute significantly to the tourism, hotel, and tourist destination sectors, and support Arab tourism.

This year's competition witnessed significant participation throughout the 30-day nomination period that began on December 1, 2023. Many Arab tourism entities were nominated for the awards.
