The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic hit the global tourism sector hard in 2020 and 2021, with countries worldwide having to restrict international travel to limit the spread of the virus. In Italy, the number of international tourist arrivals dropped sharply in March 2020 over the monthly figures of the previous two years, reaching a total of 1.1 million. In April 2020, this figure decreased further, as just 809 thousand international travelers were recorded at the Italian borders. In December 2021, the volume of inbound tourists in Italy totaled around three million, more than doubling over the same month of 2020 but remaining way below pre-pandemic levels.
