replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes The amount of revenue international tourists bring in are huge, an important sector for any country's GDP. I really hope they think and plan for the long term future b4 reopening up!

A2 Many travel suppliers need to change from decisions based on shareholder value/profits to a customer orientation offering empathy, better hygiene, safety & goodwill as well as implementing environmental actions which are urgently needed. #TTOT Image @SonjaSwissLife

replying to @aTravelCompanio @aTravelCompanio @SonjaSwissLife @pixabay There is just too little knowledge about the virus. Got people infected on a plane? So far I haven't heard of that. There were several infected flying home from a ski holiday, but I haven't heard that others on the plane got infected. #ttot

replying to @Earth_Changers_ @Earth_Changers_ Keeping fingers crossed! While it would cost more for me to travel, it would be better quality, sustainable and not massively crowded #travel and #tourism!

A1 It's always money. Can we believe airlines flying to a state (where I have family) that has a deputy governor who wants the elderly to die voluntarily in order to preserve the American way of life- the economy? #TTOT https://t.co/vO7rks71hg

replying to @SonjaSwissLife @SonjaSwissLife @TravelDudes A2. Short-haul, low density, experience-based travel. And big cruise ships out, van-travel in. #TTOT

A2. A few important topics stand out for me to focus on for #travel
- Less mass #tourism, less damaging to environment, more sustainable
- better quality travel

replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes A2. We #travel to experience difference. #people & #planet, #communities, #culture & #conservation. Mass #tourism is destroying its capital. We need to focus on making better #places for #people to live in and visit. Any #tourism which has a negative #impact should be cut #ttot

replying to @aTravelCompanio @aTravelCompanio You have to expect that. The question is if the loosened restrictions are good enough that it spreads less. In Germany we only have around 30,000 official infected. It makes sense to loosen restrictions with strict conditions. #ttot

RT @ Earth_Changers_ SonjaSwissLife pixabay Yes, this situation definitey exposes organisations for what they are. Consumers will remember those who get negative PR. And also those with big PR built on flimsy foundations of debt as investors pull funding. #ttot

replying to @Earth_Changers_ @Earth_Changers_ @pixabay Yes there will be a lot of musical chair movements in the airline sector & hospitality - sadly also a lot of take-overs by companies that have cash flow - creating oligopolies #TTOT

replying to @Best_of_Tara @Best_of_Tara @hendrikmorkel Nice thought. which month? It's a bit like a car free Sunday. People enjoy it, but only if it's once a year. I guess, as we would otherwise have it more often.
And I guess then travel would get even crazier in the other months? #ttot

A1 #ttot - To be honest. it hasn't. I won't be put off from flying after this. Although I really hope that people start to realise their own countries are just as beautiful and begin to travel domestically a bit more.

replying to @tangenghui @tangenghui Very good point! I prefer to push worldwide tourism & break down borders & that countries rely on tourism. Far better than closed borders, focusing only on yourself. #ttot

replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes @tangenghui Hopefully they will say yes with limitations they put on overtourism to keep their product attractive. They will not get the North American market right away & that hass been quite large. We can only hope & encourage DMOs & governments to do it right. #TTOT

A2 - I think van travel will become ALOT more popular. I'm so glad to have been 'locked down' on a campsite and not in my old apartment. Sure, Can't travel around at the moment but at least we have space (and a view) #ttot

replying to @aTravelCompanio @aTravelCompanio @SonjaSwissLife @pixabay That's not good news. but obviously they are in far more contact with passengers. Did other passengers got infected?
I guess that with wearing masks, there would be far less infections for the cabin crew? #ttot
