Dorota Wojciechowska, director of the Polish Tourism Organisation, has urged travellers to keep visiting to support the country’s tourism industry and the wider Polish economy.

Wojciechowska said it was all the more important for visitation to continue to maintain confidence in the sector and allow tourism revenue to contribute to a £1.34 billion Polish government fund due to be set aside to help those affected by Russia’s invasion.

”I would like to assure travel agents and individuals that the country remains safe," said Wojciechowska. "The Polish government is doing everything it can to provide security for both the nation and the tourists. We are hoping the horrible situation in Ukraine will not discourage British tourists from visiting Poland this year.”

The organisation said Poland would continue to welcome all visitors and remains a safe destinations, noting the country’s membership of the EU and Nato.

It added tourist attractions remain open, and visitors can book hotels and accommodation as usual.
