The Impact on Travel

A 70% fall in international arrivals for the first 8 months of 2020
International Air Travel Falls
Travel Industry
The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) have reported that a staggering 174 million travel and tourism jobs could be lost in 2020 if barriers to travel remain in place.
Analysis shows that should current travel restrictions be removed sooner, globally, a staggering 31 million jobs could be saved by the end of 2020.
Prolonged travel restrictions could also eliminate $4.7 trillion in the sector’s contribution to global GDP, equating to a loss of 53% compared to 2019.
Changing Restrictions
Over the summer, as travel corridors began to be formed and restrictions began to ease, many travellers welcomed the opportunity to book much-needed holidays only to have them curtailed by last minute restrictions including border closes, being taken of the travel corridor list and the introduction of quarantine measures.
The travel industry has consistently called for decreased or removed quarantine times in line with mass testing to grant greater travel access and help the industry to recover.
Changing Consumer Behaviour
Here at Health and Fitness Travel, we've seen a rise, where restrictions have allowed, in clients taking extended wellness holidays in our more remote luxury destinations with some even chartering private jets to access retreats in a safer, more efficient way.
We've also seen a rise in those choosing to holiday domestically - opting for staycation retreats that help to boost fitness, wellbeing and immunity on soil closer to home.
