Demand for holiday getaways remains high despite COVID-19 restrictions, tour operators report
The kosher travel sector is moving ahead with Passover holiday programs in Israel and abroad despite ongoing uncertainty about airport closures and confusion over health restrictions due to the coronavirus.
Holiday tour packages were all but canceled last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but this year tour operators and agencies are reporting a surge in demand from travel-hungry people around the world.
“In Israel we are full-steam ahead right now and almost booked up in full,” David Walles, general manager and CEO of Kosher Travelers, told The Media Line. “Unless there’s a snap lockdown we’ll be going ahead,” he said.
