How has COVID-19 affected global tourism industry?
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on the global tourism industry. The imposition of travel restrictions, border closures, and lockdown measures to control the spread of the virus has led to a significant decline in international travel. Airlines, hotels, and other tourism businesses faced a sudden drop in demand as people refrained from traveling, leading to massive financial losses and job cuts. Popular tourist destinations heavily reliant on tourism suffered the most, as they experienced a sudden halt in visitor arrivals and a decline in revenue. However, some countries have started to slowly reopen their borders and implement safety measures to revive tourism, although the industry is expected to take years to recover fully.
