Ep 47: 2020: Looking Back On The Year That Changed Travel Forever

To round-out 12 months that no-one will ever forget, Hannah and Gary quiz each other about the travel and tourism issues that dominated 2020.

Among the topics discussed are domestic tourism, travel bubbles, the absence of Chinese travellers, Zoominars, slimmed-down airlines, the future of visas, self-drive travel, political travel propaganda, the future of cruising, PCR and antigen tests, quarantines and vaccine passports.

We also select our favourite podcast moments of 2020, and the questions we were both asked most frequently on webinars and interviews.

Looking ahead to 2021 and beyond, we attempt to answer the ultimate question: “When, realistically, will international travel return to a sustainable level?

Spoiler alert: Hannah is more optimistic than Gary. Roll on 2021!
