#TourismFromZero initiative

Latest news:

The 2020 pandemic and previous years’ overtourism issues showed us both the benefits, the relevance, and the limits of the tourism, hospitality and leisure industries for society. We cannot foresee the future, but we can listen to challenges and start developing solutions. 

So far we have received more than 900 responses in which these questions have been discussed::

  1. How should we IMAGINE tourism now that we have an opportunity to reset the way we do business?
  2. Which CHANGES would you like to see? If any?
  3. What are your CHALLENGES and CONCERNS?
  4. What are your IDEAS and SOLUTIONS to make it through the pandemic AND into a sustainable and innovative future of tourism?

In the name of the global tourism family, many thanks to every single one of you for the inspiring feedback. Your replies are summarized in the sections below.

Don't forget to share YOUR insights (for the first time or again, with new observations):

  

The 10 quotes below are updated every few minutes and elephant word-clouds are recalculated regularly based on your new survey entries. You have to refresh the page or revisit us every so often to see the changed content.

IDEAS

There should be a remote way to be able to check guests in and out, maybe develop a software compatible with the hotel OS that allows a remote person to view the customer live and still be a "in person interaction". (April, 2020)

TOURISM MEANS

For me, tourism means coming out of your comfort zone seeing new things and places and experiencing new adventures. (October, 2020)

CHALLENGES

Declining demand, late bookings. Before the virus, we made reservations a few months earlier, but today customers book a holiday just before departure, so it is always difficult to fulfill all customers' wishes. (July, 2020)

IDEAS

In March, the world stopped. After five months, we must not allow this to happen again. We need to learn to live with the virus. In the first wave, hospitals feared they would run out of beds - Why not turn a hotel that is not in an interesting tourist location and currently does not receive guests into a quarantine area for people infected with the covid virus? (September, 2020)

OTHER / SPOTTED

I am really curios about how the Covid-19 pandemic will change our world and our society. I think we can learn a lot of things from the crisis and reorient new. But I am also concerned about how the world will change and which developments are going to happen in the future. I hope people think careful and learn from the crisis. (June, 2020)
