The Future of Travel & Tourism in The Wake of COVID-19
In the span of a few months in the first part of 2020, the world has shifted. First and foremost,
the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, has caused incredible tragedy. The number of people
suffering from illness, death of loved ones, unemployment, economic impact, health and
poverty is overwhelming. Together, we share our heartfelt sympathy for those bearing these
burdens and our sincere appreciation for those supporting on the frontlines.
More broadly, COVID-19 has altered our way of life dramatically. Our social interactions, our
professional dynamics, and our digital relationships are all transformed. The Travel & Tourism
sector has certainly not been immune to that transition. Indeed, the Travel & Tourism sector

jurisdictions instituted shelter-inplace orders. Many businesses were forced to close on a
temporary basis, often escalating into permanent closures, unfortunately. While businesses

jobs were lost daily. Yet, we have also witnessed inspiring commitment and strength among
our fellow Travel & Tourism leaders. Businesses are donating food; supporting repatriation; and
opening their doors to the homeless, victims of domestic abuse, frontline workers, and those
sick or quarantined due to COVID-19. Travel & Tourism workers are undergoing training to
provide medical care, sewing masks for the community, and taking pain-staking precautions to
keep travellers safe. Accustomed to supporting guests in their day-to-day work, they have truly
breathed new life into the term “hospitality.”
Moreover, businesses and destinations are seizing the moment to come together and build on
their experience to enhance their approach so as to ensure the sustainable and inclusive
recovery of the sector. To recover faster, experience has shown the importance of a global
coordinated approach with public-private cooperation, the need to enhance the current
