COVID-19 impact and analysis for luxury travel market:
COVID-19 is an infectious disease that originated in Hubei province of the Wuhan city in China in late December. The highly contagious disease, caused by a virus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is transmitted from humans to humans. Since the outbreak in December 2019, the disease has spread to almost 213 countries around the globe with the World Health Organization declaring it a public health emergency on March 11, 2020.
The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic had led to partial or complete shutdown of production facilities, which do not come under essential goods, owing to prolonged lockdown in major countries such as the U.S., China, Japan, India, France and Germany. It has led to either closure or suspension of their production activities in most of the industrial units across the world.
By Type Of Tour
Adventure & Safari was the dominant segment in 2020.
COVID-19 pandemic has impacted all the industries globally. The tourism industry has been hit hard all over the world, impacting its associated sectors such as travel agencies, hospitality, tour operators, and all kinds of transportation services. Around 90% of the global population was adjusted to their lifestyle under several travel restrictions and remaining population stayed home in fear of the virus itself. Thus, the tourism sector came to a near standstill. According to the article published by the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTCC) in August 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to cost the tourism industry revenue loss of almost $25 billion and a loss of almost 100 million jobs worldwide.
Furthermore, owing to the implementation of lockdown and social distancing norms in almost every country of the world, flights were grounded, trains stopped running, and almost all public transport services were halted.
