The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic hit the global business tourism industry hard as the ability to travel was limited in order to reduce the spread of the virus. According to an April 2021 survey, 37 percent of respondents stated that their companies have considered resuming domestic business travels in the near future, between one to three months. In contrast, just 10 percent of respondents believed that their firms would resume international business trips within the same timespan.

Supplementary notes
The survey question was phrased by the source as follows: "You mentioned your company has canceled or suspended most or all trips to the following regions or countries. Thinking about each region or country, which best describes your company’s position?"
Percentage points exceeding 100 percent are probably due to rounding.
