GDANSK, Jan 31 (Reuters) - Turkey's tourism revenues hit a record high of $46.28 billion in 2022, up 53.4% from the previous year as lingering pandemic effects dissipated and as war fallout drove a surge of Russian arrivals, official data showed on Tuesday. The tourism industry's previous record high was $34.5 billion in revenues in 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic struck.


In the fourth quarter of last year, tourism revenues climbed 22.2% to $11.37 billion, the Turkish Statistical Institute data showed. ( Reporting by Canan Sevgili and Azra Ceylan; Editing by Jonathan Spicer)
