The Covid crisis is certainly far from resolved: the continuous specter of increasingly aggressive variants, such as Delta prevailing in the UK , calls for caution.
The vaccination campaign has contributed to an important wave of optimism, converted into greater confidence among travelers in much of the world, yet new pandemic waves are frightening APAC countries.
So what should we expect on the tourism front, in the medium and long term?
A recent report from Saber Hospitality Solutions finds Phone Number List already very encouraging data for leisure travel , while the business sector will probably see a gradual but more intense recovery than expected. Let's now look at the report in detail , focusing on the different markets investigated.
Travel recovery trends
Saber Hospitality Solutions has identified the main trends indicative of renewed confidence in the travel sector. First, bookings with very short windows (less than 7 days) have decreased for the fifth consecutive month, while long-term booking windows are increasing . This indicates a proactive attitude among travellers, who are starting to plan holidays again in extended time windows .
As regards the APAC area, still affected by new waves of Covid-19, Saber records a higher level of user confidence due to a decrease in unemployment and the easing of restrictive measures, to allow the recovery of domestic tourism . Reservations here are channeled through all the main channels: OTA, GDS and proprietary booking engines.
In the NAM (Non-Aligned Movement) and LATAM (Latin America) markets, booking engine transactions in March exceeded 2019 levels , confirming high demand for leisure travel via the direct channel. Searches for international travel appear to be rapidly increasing because, to date, the phase of planning and dreaming of a trip is the priority in users' minds.
