Covid-19 has meant that many of us are stuck at home, going out to buy food or exercise and very little else. People are desperate to get out. Lockdown won't last forever and countries across the globe are beginning to ease restrictions. What does this mean for international travel going forward? It's impossible to say with certainty what's going to happen. There is so unknown at the moment. However, changes are certainly coming.
Different Transport
The aviation industry has been particularly hard-hit during the pandemic and its likely that lots of people won't feel comfortable flying for a long time. This isn't to say they won't want to travel at all. Trains and long road trips could be the holiday of choice going forward. There's a possibility people won't want to travel too far from home. Domestic trips could see a rise, especially for those wanting to get out of the city. London Kings Cross to Hatfield Herts is a particularly lovely journey.
Environment Factors
Sectors across the world are discussing how fewer flights could and should become permanent. Business travellers are adapting with Zoom meetings, and some are grateful to be cutting down on costs and carbon emissions. It's not long international flights that come become less frequent, but short domestic trips too. The changes within the travel industry could reap many benefits for the environment.
Staying Local
With restrictions on flights, as well as people rethinking how they travel, it's likely that they're going to explore their home country a lot more. Luckily, the UK is blessed with so much stunning scenery. No matter where in the country you find yourself, you won't be too far from a beautiful spot. From the Scottish Highlands to Cornish coves Brits are spoilt for choice for their future staycations.
More Camping
Campsites could see a large increase in the number of visitors. This would make sense as it's very easy for people to social distance and potential contamination from the public is minimal. For some, it could feel much safer than a hotel. Plus, with so many of us being stuck indoors for so long, it would make sense people want to be outdoors as much as possible.
It is unclear what exactly the future of travelling will entail. At the moment it's a matter of waiting to see how countries and their travel industries adapt. Where would be the first place you travel to when restrictions are lifted?
