As U.S. faces its most trying coronavirus pandemic days, industry leaders imagine the future of travel.
The Department of Transportation has said it will give airlines a chance to comply with its refund requests “before taking further action.”
When restrictions do ease, he said, “I think the first thing that will come back is regional travel: going to the city that’s three hours away by car. What you don’t want to do is fly somewhere and find yourself in a situation where you’re going to be quarantined.” When international travel does pick up again, “I know we’re going to find an eager and welcoming Europe,” said Steves, whose business withstood Sept. 11, 2001, and the recession of 2008. “When something stops travel and people start coming back, it’s a beautiful moment for all involved. ... But I’m not going to jump the gun.… I just don’t have the heart for that after what we’ve gone through this spring. I’m going to be patient.
The hotels that recover the fastest, Reay said, “are going to be the smaller hotels. Especially in the beach and coastal areas. The ones that are going to take the longest are the large meeting and resort hotels. ... I think people will initially avoid these larger 200-300-room hotels.”
