SINGAPORE, 30 July 2021: The Asia Pacific region has gone from being the top dog in the travel and tourism sector to being put in the doghouse due to errors handling the pandemic, see-saw Covid19 case numbers and at times even complacency.
However, ForwardKeys, in a recent assessment, says a
“few risk-taking destinations are daring to try some new approaches to
compensate for the collateral loss of international arrivals.”
The report suggests there are still a few things travel
partners in the region can do to keep a steady trickle of tourism dollars until
the promised full recovery in 2024.
“The world has changed, like it or not. That means what you once knew is no longer valid, and past historical data is not useful,” says ForwardKeys director of APAC for Tourism & Hospitality Jameson Wong.
