Wishful thinking at ITB on Easter Holiday Tourism
March 11, 2021
Easter holidays this year were still possible, both at home and abroad, what was needed was an intelligent testing strategy for the coronavirus. That was the opinion voiced by Norbert Fiebig, president of the German Travel Association (DRV) at the virtual opening press conference of ITB Berlin. “In the Balearics infections are 32 per 100,000, while in Germany they are over 60. What risk is there in traveling to Majorca? Who wants to be protected from whom? There are enough safe destinations”, Fiebig said. Health safety was easier to organize on a package tour than on Berlin public transport, he added.
