Travel intentions of Europeans in the next six months 2021, by destination
The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic caused unprecedented challenges in the travel industry across the globe. During the health crisis, many travelers canceled their trips or preferred to travel domestically and to nearby countries, as different travel bans and restrictions were implemented worldwide. A February 2021 survey, focusing on the travel intentions of Europeans, revealed that roughly 41 percent of respondents claimed they will travel to another European country in the next six months, while around 36 percent of surveyed travelers plan to travel within their own country. Meanwhile, only 12.6 percent of the survey sample had plans to travel outside of Europe.
