replying to @TWtravelnews @TWtravelnews A3 #TWChats I think there’ll be more interest in outdoor adventures like hiking, cycling, kayaking and Nordic skiing.

A4 It's very difficult to make long-term predictions that don't feel like guesswork or complete conjecture at this point, but my hope is that the travel industry uses this crisis as a once-in-a-century opportunity to build a better and more sustainable world. #TWchats

A4: We think more travelers will turn to professionals when it's time to plan their future trips. One silver lining of the COVID situation is that more people now realize the value of working with a travel advisor.

A4: @twtravelnews As a result of the pandemic, we think we'll see a change in how travelers are greeted and greet one another. We expect to see fewer handshakes, but even more smiles. #TWchats

A3: In the future, travelers are going to be paying more attention to avoiding crowds, avoiding lines, and avoiding companies that have treated them poorly in the past. Risk aversion will be key. #TWchats

replying to @dannen825 @dannen825 That's a great point! Travelers may be focusing more on the PEOPLE they are traveling with, and not just the destination.

A4 Let's all think about travel as a force for good. Let’s be more conscientious global citizens who value people and the sustainable future of our planet. As members of this important industry that fuels so much good, let’s be the better travelers who lead the way. #TWchats

replying to @KGlowczewska A4: The mechanics of travel will change, just as flying changed after 9/11. The way we are screened on planes and cruise ships, not for explosive devices but for infectious disease. But once we get to our destination, the world will be as beautiful and exciting as ever. #TWchats

replying to @TWtravelnews @TWtravelnews A1 #TWChats I’m dreaming of visiting two places that I specialize in: Iceland and the Faroe Islands, both having successfully tackled the coronavirus.

I definitely think all of the innovative new cleaning practices that hotels have been introducing will be with us for good, even post-crisis. They will simply be part of what consumers expect in a quality property, and may also give hotels a leg up on Airbnb. (part 1) #TWChats https://t.co/GNkgM77BUx

A4: A travel practice we see changing for the foreseeable future is the increased desire for exclusive, intimate travel experiences. Properties such as @jumbybay, nestled on a 300-acre private Caribbean island, offer an idyllic experience we expect travelers to seek. #TWchats

A3: Tourism recovery will begin locally with staycations and drive-to destinations. Increased sanitation procedures for airlines and boarding protocols will also change travel as we know it. #TWChats https://t.co/WIGjufhwOF

Airport security is going to be reimagined, whether that’s Covid-19 testing or temperature testing is still unknown.

A3: We are also looking at the increased need of travel agents since people want to feel comfortable with their purchases should they need to cancel, and travel agents offer that sense of security and flexibility. #TWChats https://t.co/WIGjufhwOF

replying to @TWrtobin @TWrtobin @jesseashlock It depends a great deal on where our guests live. Here in Northern California, it's easy to do a lot without going more than a few hours' drive from home. I'd want to know about the tethers - how far from home are you willing to go, physically or metaphorically? #TWChats

replying to @CNTraveler @CNTraveler I’m used to this at my home airport in Taipei, but I’d like to see more airports adopt unobtrusive temperature screening methods. The onus shouldn’t be solely on airlines. #TWChats
