CHALLENGES

Deciding which hotel is clean and COVID-19 free is a big decision when deciding where to stay for work during this outbreak.

The biggest concern is that current situation continues for "too" long. It could bring fear of travel - even if short term (6-10 months) it a big hit for our industry and this could mean a big shifts. But even though this could be bad for people working in tourism it could also bring inovation and good improvment. (April, 2020)
