“Travel is booming at present, with most people planning holidays feverishly as they come out of the extended Covid-induced lockdowns. Needless to state, there is a fair amount of confusion in the traveller’s mind concerning restrictions and norms to be followed. However, some trends have begun to take shape, setting the stage for the New Normal. As sanitation, safety, and well-being have received increased attention, these aspects have evolved into differentiators and determining factors for travellers when selecting their accommodation.
Travellers are also more prone to choose outdoor, open areas like beaches, forests, national parks, wildlife reserves, etc., when choosing a trip since they are conducive to maintaining social distance. Modern hospitality providers provide staycations or working holiday choices with high-speed internet and designated workspaces for those seeking to escape the monotony of working from home for an extended period. In this New Normal, resulting from the shifting dynamics at workplaces and travel preferences, it is anticipated that this dynamic trend will lead to new service models in hospitality. The mindset of tourists on their part has also substantially changed in this period to one of responsible and sustainable behaviour.
On the other hand, Governments have initiated various campaigns promoting domestic travel in collaboration with the travel and hotel industries. Flexibility will enable the sector to adapt and respond to the situation’s demands for change, which might make all the difference in overcoming the downturn.
