Q: It sounds like demand for travel is really picking up.
A: Dramatically. I'd say really in the last eight weeks. It has been an incredible display of pent-up demand, consumer confidence. Vaccinations have built a lot of confidence. At this point, what we are seeing is people in destination ... who are seeing and experiencing how spectacular and specific and precise the protocols have been. I think that is one of the greatest testimonials.
