  3. What are your CHALLENGES and CONCERNS?
  4. What are your IDEAS and SOLUTIONS to make it through the pandemic AND into a sustainable and innovative future of tourism?

Declining demand, late bookings. Before the virus, we made reservations a few months earlier, but today customers book a holiday just before departure, so it is always difficult to fulfill all customers' wishes. (July, 2020)

IDEAS

For people who love to travel, the worst case is not to plan. Fot those every travel stops with a new travel plan, even in maybe their domestic area. So it is crucial for tourism companies not to stop comunicating with people outhere and give them hope for best summer, best experience, best day trip, best family time... Don't focus on the ones who will not come, focus on the ones who will come "with a little help of the current situation". (April, 2020)

OTHER / SPOTTED

I would suggest that at the end of this current crisis, as many organizations come together and try to help one another. Maybe one at that moment has more financial resources, the other more employees and thus support each other, because that is the only way for the states, organizations ... to recover. (March, 2020)
