Greek eurozone exit would 'boost' tourism Graham Pickett, representative for aviation and travel at the financial firm Deloitte, said that a Greek exit was "inevitable," and suggested that a much-needed influx of foreign holidaymakers would follow. Unrest this year led to reduced prices at many hotels and holiday apartments, and this would probably be the case again should it fail to solve its debt crisis. It has also been suggested that, should the drachma make a return, its value would quickly plummet, meaning prices on the ground would be even cheaper for visiting holidaymakers. Mr Pickett's comments came as thousands of Greeks took to the streets this week to protest its government's ongoing austerity measures. He was appearing alongside representatives from Virgin Atlantic, Monarch and EasyJet at the Travel Weekly Business Breakfast, hosted by the Telegraph. Tourism accounts for around a sixth of Greece's GDP, so any increase in visitors would provide a timely boost to the economy.
