The effect of COVID 19 on the travel and tourism industry could be felt right from the dusk of 2019, the last normal year for travelers alike. Before 2020, traveling for work or pleasure had become one of the easiest and most accessible activities. If one needed to travel for a meeting to India from USA, all that was needed was a last minute flight from the USA to India, maybe a cheap flight from Chicago to Mumbai, a small carry on and provisions for stay and food and bon voyage. A businessman could have a round trip of 2 days even without a second thought.
The advent of 2020, the widespread COVID 19, the rapid increase in positive cases, and the resulting international lockdown and global pandemic proceeded to put an end to travel altogether and with it all the travel trends we knew of. As things went back to normal and the industry started rebuilding itself, the arrival of the Omicron Variant is again threatening to shake down and close travel again.
What types of Vacations to take safely?
Road Trips
Road trips have long been in fashion for travel in India. The glorification of Road trips in Bollywood with movies like Dil Chahta Hai and Zindagi Na Millegi Dobara, road trips has long been a part of the culture and though the trend diminished in the 2010’s due to cheap flight tickets, the trend has revived greatly during this lockdown.
RV travel
Though not very suited for Indian Roads, a recreational vehicle is another comfortable option to explore. This trend is very popular in the USA with families and friends often travelling from one coast to the other and it allows you to maintain social distancing. This trend along with smaller vans has found presence and success on many video blogs and is here to stay.
Domestic Travel
The pandemic and being cooped up indoors for so long has inspired people to travel to forgo their aspirations for luxurious international trips and to explore locally. This has increased the footfall for unexplored destinations while boosting our local economy.
