The war in Iran is causing global uncertainty and leading to waves of cancellations in Swiss tourism, primarily affecting Asian markets. Mount Rigi, known as the "Queen of the Mountains," is also feeling the effects among guests from Eastern European markets, but according to Rigi Bahnen AG, it has only had to cancel a single booking since the outbreak of hostilities. This makes the situation on the Rigi appear less dramatic than in other locations. The hope is to welcome more guests from Switzerland and Europe if the global uncertainty persists, while the peak season will reveal the true impact.
