Last week Tourism Update asked readers to share their views on flexible booking policies post-COVID.
A substantial majority were in favour of more flexibility, with 69% of voters saying it would be important. See the full results below:
As international tourists start to rebook their southern and East African trips, do you believe flexible, more accommodating booking policies are necessary?
Yes, especially with so much global uncertainty. We need to be willing to meet the traveller halfway. 69%
Perhaps, on a temporary basis until there is more certainty about global travel. 28%
No, it’s a risk we cannot take as we stand to lose too much. 3%
This week we want to gauge how the industry received South Africa’s revised list of high-risk countries. The list was updated based on a risk categorisation model and now includes major source market, Germany.
Engage with the poll on the right hand side of the news feed or let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
Question: What is your take on the revised list of high-risk countries?
A positive step in the right direction; happy to see the list of high-risk countries has decreased.
When will sense prevail and the high-risk list be scrapped altogether. An ever-changing list makes marketing impossible!
