@TravelDudes @SonjaSwissLife @CampfireMagUK Yes, demand will certainly outstrip supply for a few years. I expect a lot of other car-makers will be eyeing this market now. 💚

A3: My hubby and I are planning to take the kids to the Cayman Islands in July. We haven't cancelled, but I suspect we will have to. I was also hoping to get to Oktoberfest, but that, of course, isn't happening this year. #TTOT

replying to @MrGads2 @MrGads2 @TravelDudes @hendrikmorkel I don't think we'll have a choice. Airlines may not be operating internationally, nor borders open, & other countries behind the curve. When they do I expect #safety will take soooo long at the airport - like after 9/11 in the US! Long haul's written-off for most 2020 #ttot

@SonjaSwissLife @TravelDudes I reckon the countries can start off with their own domestic tourism market, supporting their own country's economy too! We don't know when international borders can open up!

A2 This is how they see at WIZZ in Europe right now - far too soon despite what they do. US carriers flight crew will also wear masks. https://t.co/E5Gyp2pRwI #TTOT https://t.co/hq3zhOx9Da

A3 #ttot - Thankfully we're in New Zealand on a working holiday visa so anything we do, even domestically, is still 'travelling' for us. We didn't have anything booked but have had to postpone our road trips.

@TravelDudes @SonjaSwissLife @pixabay I do not know. some said masks do not work, some countries you can't go out without a mask.
Would be great to have a good source #ttot
a proper WHO website with useful info 🤔
TravelDudes
replying to @SonjaSwissLife @SonjaSwissLife @tangenghui I doubt that, as they would loose out on a lot of money & that will be needed and more than before. But I hope that I'm wrong. It's for sure a great opportunity to fix the situation. #ttot

@wheresshellyii Would this be a good time for domestic and interstate travel in Australia before the international market opens up again?

replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes @tangenghui Unfortunately it depends who you ask! Ask the locals and they will say no! It's the governments who enable it for $s, not the people who live there & have to cope. Amsterdam doing some innovative things! #ttot

RT @tangenghui: A1. This #Covid19 pandemic has kind of brought the #travel and #tourism industries down to their knees.

A1 This is an excellent idea, Tara. Probably a bit doubtful with the aggressive commercial side of things but it's certainly necessary. It may happen soon anyway if there's a 2nd COVID wave that's being created right now! #TTOT https://t.co/616fZtm7zc

Q4 via @SonjaSwissLife: Which division in travel do you think needs the most change? Transportation, accommodation, tours, tourist offices, etc. Give your reasons #TTOT

replying to @tangenghui @tangenghui definitely, local tourism will be booming in a few months. There's also talk that Aus & NZ will be there own bubble so we'll be able to travel there too #ttot

replying to @aTravelCompanio @aTravelCompanio @SonjaSwissLife @pixabay You ask for a lot. hahaha I'm really disappointed by the information which got published in this crisis. It would be so important to hear more about strategies and research studies. Then you would be able to cope better with the situation as well. #ttot

I agree, having spent decades 6'000 miles from my family. It's way of life that has to be dealt with & it's not easy. @StuartMHurlbut #TTOT https://t.co/kUGdXnvbGQ

@Earth_Changers_ @tangenghui What is Amsterdam doing?
There will be many businesses in Amsterdam who will have extreme troubles this year, as there are no tourists now or less in the next few months. #ttot

@SonjaSwissLife A4. Transportation. Aviation will be hardest hit (even post-vaccine - people will want to minimise exposure to others - and confined public spaces will be avoided). Excited for rail-travel though (if compartmentalised) #TTOT

replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes @SonjaSwissLife A4: Transportation. I'd love to see trains promoted and subsidised so that they can bring prices down and compete with air travel. Trains are a peaceful and lovely way to travel and far less impactful on the environment. #TTOT
Earth_Changers_
replying to @wheresshellyii @wheresshellyii Yes, buy 1 seat, get another free. Just don't put anyone in it & the 1st will cost you double previous cost. Would be iteresting to see the impact on demand, The rich would have the greatest emissions (even more so) & the most vulnerable the least opportunity (even more so) #ttot
SonjaSwissLife
replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes A2 Yes @TravelDudes Open borders is/was wonderful. A new world at the moment, isn't it? There are closed "bubbles" of travel now between less contaminated areas like Australia/NewZealand that have opened just those borders. #TTOT @wheresshellyii
SonjaSwissLife
A4 #Transport changes urgently needed as they're the most polluting & unhygienic: cruise ships, legacy aircraft, wildlife destruction for airport expansion. Support needed for #rail & city public transport. All need to adapt an empathy policy for customer service. #TTOT @pixabay

replying to @SonjaSwissLife @SonjaSwissLife @TravelDudes not open yet but they're definitely discussing tourism travel between Aus & NZ, which is great as I've always wanted to go to the South Island! #ttot

replying to @Earth_Changers_ @Earth_Changers_ @tangenghui Yes. It would be excellent if we could return to value in the travel industry focusing on the value sought by customers & not just share holders. A less stressful travel experience with value pricing and refunds. #TTOT

A4. Good qn! To me, all of them since they are in the #travel and #tourism ecosystem! However, if I have to select who gets the most change, I would say
- tourist offices : $$ is great for growth but over capitalism destroys
- transportation : too cheap - mass numbers
#TTOT

replying to @TravelDudes
Cruise & other ships can operate with higher quality fuel, which does not pollute that crazy. Why not force them worldwide to use that? It would only get a bit more expensive for them, but still fine.
#TTOT

A4: Airline & cruise travel. Those engines should be thrown away & should have been replaced 10 years ago. That alone would make a huge difference.
Rolls Royce started to work on hydrogen engines. Why now & not 15 years ago?

replying to @tangenghui @tangenghui Very true and it certainly has bought the #travel and #tourism industry to its knees #ttot / quick and drastic changes need to be made in the way tourism uses itself to safeguard its tourists & the supply chain
SonjaSwissLife
replying to @tangenghui @tangenghui @TravelDudes So do I. Long term is far more beneficial as we have learned. #TTOT

replying to @wheresshellyii @wheresshellyii @hendrikmorkel I generally only #travel for work now, & try to keep that minimal. I had events cancelled like #ITB #Berlin so didn't travel, another in June, another in September most probably. Will be happy just to visit my parents 5 hours away by road when I can! *but wld love some sun! #ttot

replying to @wheresshellyii
@wheresshellyii I read about the travel bubble too and Aus is not opening up international travel yet, looks like domestic tourism would be the boost for the next new quarters for Aus!
#TTOT
TravelDudes
replying to @HHLifestyleTrav @HHLifestyleTrav @SonjaSwissLife In theory yes, but their infrastructures would not be able to handle more travelers. They run over their limits already. The governments missed out to invest into improving the infrastructures years ago. #ttot
SonjaSwissLife
replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes @aTravelCompanio @pixabay Yes, but as you said, there is very little knowledge and worse than that the information is anecdotal & published by various journalist throughout the world. No stable reporting even with WHO. I'm old fashioned. Better #safe than sorry. #TTOT
wheresshellyii
replying to @tangenghui @tangenghui yeah international flights other than NZ won't be available but within Aus & NZ there should be some big tourism numbers #ttot
