PATA Webinar: Tourism Insights and Strategies to the COVID-19 Crisis

In partnership with the Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau (TCEB)

The COVID-19 pandemic presents a severe threat to the world economy and, in particular, the global travel and tourism industry. According to research from the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC), travel and tourism GDP loss to the world economy is up to US$2.1 trillion, while up to 75 millions jobs are at immediate risk globally. The Asia Pacific region is expected to be most heavily impacted with up to 49 million jobs at risk throughout the region, representing a loss of nearly US$800 billion to travel and tourism GDP for the region.

The travel and tourism industry is facing an extraordinary crisis and the entire industry needs to work together to preserve and protect a sector that is a vital contributor to the economic livelihood of millions of people around the world. During times such as these, it is essential to have reliable analysis and insights to the most-up-to date data and information in order to enact a measured and balanced recovery strategy.

15:15-15:25 Presentation on COVID-19 Impact on Regional Economies and Jobs

The novel coronavirus has killed over 150,000 people around the world. It has compelled many governments to lock down their populations to a degree unimaginable until recently. It will probably cause the most brutal recession in living memory. The presentation will share briefly The Economist Intelligence Unit's latest updates on the impact of covid-19 on the global and regional economy, scenarios of how economies might re-open, the changes forced onto business and the longer-term predictions on Asia's growth.

16:15-16:45 Panel Discussion: Moving Beyond Crisis Management: Strategies for Recovery

COVID-19 is likely to be deemed the most abrupt shock to the global economy and society in modern history. Every destination will face tourism recovery challenges in the coming months. The end of the pandemic is still not in sight and execution of strategy will depend on when that may occur and the form it takes. The gradual recovery of the tourism market will require a strategic focus to overcome these challenges. In this session, we discuss how some destinations are thinking strategically to plan for post-containment and what the “new” normal will be.

The evolution of aviation after COVID-19

The coronavirus pandemic is having an unprecedented impact on travel and aviation activity but a demand recovery remains likely once countries are able to ease international travel restrictions.

Prior peak levels of activity will be regained, but activity and the growth trend will be different. In this session, the panel will explore the lasting impacts on passenger behaviour as well as airline activity.

Discussion will cover expected changes in traveller preferences and behaviour, as well as lasting industry impacts plus potential policy effects such as new taxes or lingering travel regulations.

Webinar: Impact of COVID-19 on PATA Visitor Forecasts 2020-2024

Overview:
Under the newly updated forecasts from the Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA), the most likely scenario for international visitor arrivals into and across Asia Pacific in 2020 is that visitor numbers are likely to reduce by 32% year-on-year. Taking into account the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the volume of arrivals is now expected to reduce to fewer than 500 million this year.
During this webinar, participants will have the opportunity to ask questions about the forecasts and find out useful insights and analyses for the destinations within Asia Pacific to prepare for and manage the negative impacts of the COVID-19 on their tourism industries.

What you’ll learn from HKPU:
● The methods used in the PATA Asia Pacific Visitor Forecasts report series
● Understanding the factors, especially COVID-19, that may have contributed to the future trends of tourism demand within Asia Pacific
● The extent to which COVID-19 would affect the demand for travel within the region
● Possible suggestions about the ways in which the destination organisations/businesses could combat the negative impacts of COVID-19.

What you’ll learn from Euromonitor International:
● The latest global economic outlook based on Euromonitor International’s latest research incorporating COVID-19 effects
● The historic economic performance of PATA destinations for metrics like GDP and disposable income
● The future outlook for PATA destination economies and income in light of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic

Does Tourism Have a Future in the Pacific?

Does Tourism Have a Future in the Pacific?
24 February 2022, 10:00-11:15 am (Manila time)

Overview

This webinar presented evaluations of challenges of the Pacific tourism after COVID-19, scenarios of tourism recovery, the latest policy measures in the Pacific, recommendations on way forward for the sustainable tourism and perspectives from the industry. It presented latest ADB publications on the topic and highlighted the importance of scenario planning and futures thinking and foresight to demonstrate its application in policy and decision-making process.

Key messages

Ashish Narain, Principal Economist, Social Sectors and Public Sector Management Division, Pacific Department, ADB:

Tourism sector generated almost $4 billion worth of business for the Pacific region and accounted for 8% of the GDP, and employed more than 90,000 people. The recovery of the economies in the region depends on the revival of the tourism.

Pacific tourism heavily depends on handful of countries. Almost 50% of the tourists in the Pacific came from just two countries (Australia and New Zealand) and another 10% from USA. More than 60% of the tourism is leisure tourism. There is also weakness in hard and soft infrastructure (e.g. limited number of airlines, shipping lanes, rising costs for the private sector, in particular SMEs).

Carrying capacity of the Pacific islands is limited. What do we do when we expect fundamental changes to happen? We can look at the past which may give us valuable lessons. An alternative is to imagine different scenarios and use the strategies and actions that can increase the chances of reaching positive outcomes, while minimizing the chances of undesirable outcomes and finally to rethink and reimagine.


Sara Currie, Tourism Specialist, Pacific Private Sector Development Initiative (PSDI), ADB

Pacific tourism industries faced a myriad of challenges prior to the pandemic – many of which have now been exacerbated by COVID-19 and the resulting global shutdown.

A successful resumption of tourism goes beyond just reopening borders. Challenges such as health protocols, visitor dispersal and balancing sustainability with economic advancement must all be considered.

A range of strategies could be adopted to support recovery and longer-term resilience, including a regional approach, improvements in the enabling environment, data and evidence-based strategy and planning for crisis and resilience.


Dr. Ian Yeoman, Associate Professor of Tourism Futures, Victoria University of Wellington

COVID-19 has produced a future of complexity and uncertainty; thus, the future is about multiple futures and designing for resilience.

We present four futures, everything from no future to a future of hope and something in between.

The scenarios are a living document, something that will be continually edited and updated.


Dr. Johanna Loehr, Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Griffith University, Brisbane

Tourism’s policy response to COVID-19 focused on crisis response measures with immediate outcomes and returning to business as usual. Only few examples of measures aimed at creating long-term and strategic change exist.

To build forward and address uncertainty, holistic approaches to decision-making are required.

No matter what tourism’s future looks like – sustainability will always be very important. It presents a proactive and no-regret approach.


Mr. Chris Cocker, the CEO of the Pacific Tourism Organization (SPTO)

The two years has given SPTO the opportunity to reset, rethink and rebuild our strategic plan

To drive Pacific tourism to recover pandemic, SPTO in collaboration with development partners will lead by resetting through digital transformation, rethinking through innovative collaboration regionally and globally, rebuilding through responsible sustainable tourism recovery that depends on research and data insights.

“We are at the crossroads – we need paradigm shift – we need to go back to Pacific values because sustainability is at the heart of our belief system”


Susann Roth, Advisor and Chief of Knowledge Management, Knowledge Advisory Services Center (KASC), ADB

We often see different scenarios happening the at the same time. Important is to use additional futures thinking and foresight tools like backcasting and then create an understanding on what kind of milestones and indicators we have to watch out for to move towards the preferred scenario. So scenarios help us to create awareness, help us understand the uncertainties that we need to navigate. They also help us understand what kind of policies we need to build on.

Travel Is Coming Back.. Here's Where To Go NEXT!

Welcome back to Around the Globe, today on the channel we are going to catch the sight of Rebound on travel and how the world will adjust. Every year travel trends come and go, however, 2021 is set to be one of tourism’s most significant years to date. As the world slowly recovers from COVID-19 and borders gradually start to open, we expect travel to look a little different than it did pre-pandemic. Although nobody knows exactly what will happen, one thing is clear; we won’t be able to travel as freely (without consideration for our health) as we used to…at least for the foreseeable future. However, with this comes an exciting opportunity to adapt and innovate, along with the likelihood of travellers being willing to pay more to reduce their COVID-19 exposure.

Socially distant travel, detailed and timely data sharing, less groups more fit itineraries,market popularity may change and a shift in transportation expectations are some of the things travellers will need to look forward to. Seeking a travel expert is one of the most important tasks, and yet while looking for one we will equip you with information before your next trip. Stick around for more.

COVID-19 - Preparing for Tourism Recovery - Kenya Tourism Board May 14th 2020 Full Webinar

The Webinar was hosted by the Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife-Kenya ( MOTW-KE ) to discuss possible strategies for consideration towards tourism recovery. We reviewed the opportunities for tourism trade and stakeholders to work together in readiness for the ‘reset’ of the travel and tourism industry. The webinar moved beyond the analysis of the impact of the COVID -19 pandemic and provided a forward-facing discussion of the way ahead.

Travel will NEVER be the same | COVID-19 Predictions

What will travel look like after the Coronavirus pandemic? My predictions on the future of travel over the next 3-5 years.

In 2019, travel was accessible to more people than ever before thanks to budget airlines, epic travel deals, new flight routes and plenty of accommodation options from hostels to airbnb. Experts predict this 'golden age' of travel is over with the 'new normal' being much less affordable or accessible.

There's no question that COVID-19 has wreaked havoc on the hotel, airline, cruise and travel industry as a whole. You may be wondering if yearly vacations, budget getaways and cheap flights gone for good. In today's video I'll break down the research based predications that you should consider before planning for travel between now and 2025.

What do you think travel will look like over the next 3-5 years?

How to “recover” tourism research’s relevance after COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced tourism scholars to grapple with the future of tourism education and research. An increasing critique is that tourism research has not addressed research topics that are most urgent and fundamental. Amid the crisis, are tourism academics losing relevance? During the pandemic, how can we offer impactful thought leadership to the industry, public, and society at large? After the pandemic, how can we ensure our research is relevant and meaningful? At this critical juncture that could reshape global tourism development, TTRA and Temple University’s U.S.-Asia Center for Tourism and Hospitality Research invite you to discuss the relevance of tourism research with three distinguished leaders in our field.

Coronavirus 2019 (Covid-19) disease pandemic and solutions for travel & tourism industry

What is a solution for economy and travel and tourism recovery during this pandemic!
Why governments don’t bring up solutions instead of bringing crises and confusions as restrictions, borders closure, negative news, reports, statistics and etc..!
The solution based on my personal opinion for travel and tourism is.. In economics there is a key concept called opportunity cost!
There is no economist who doesn’t know what opportunity cost is!
In our days, any country, company, even an employee must have a source of income to live and survive!
For example A country as Saudi Arabia’s main source of income is oil, as main source of income for Russia is Gas! And other countries may depend on travel and tourism, agriculture, import export and etc..
lets give an example: A country with a source of income based on farming! if a farm decide to produce either wool or dairy products! Assume a farm has 1000 cows in total, if a farm decides to produce 1000 units of wool, then they must sacrifice 1000 cows, but they cannot produce any dairy products! But if they decide to produce 500 units of dairy products, then they must sacrifice only 500 cows/wool to produce that! This is an opportunity cost “the value of the next best thing you give up, whenever you make a decision”
Now.. What does that mean in airlines and tourism sectors! Well..You cannot expect economic growth and change while you restrict and close international borders Coz that will not bring up any solution! More than it will cause more damages and crises!
For example: Tourism is a key source of Switzerland’s income Early July Swiss Government announced, From July 6, anyone entering Switzerland from 29 at risk countries (which US and Russia are on the top of that list) must be quarantined for 10 days! An action like this will not serve or lift up tourism sector growth in Switzerland, neither in any other country, which comes with similar restriction ideas! (closing your shop and expecting customers to buy from you!)
As today coronavirus active cases in USA are approx.. 1.4 million cases, which translates into less than 0.5% of US population of 330 Million
And in Russia coronavirus active cases are about.. 220 thousand cases, which translates even into less than 0.16% of Russia population of 144 million!
So if these 2 major countries with most coronavirus cases are below .5% infection, then where is that high risk of infection in traveling goverments talking about!!!
Again… Lets compare virus transmission in an international air traveling versus domestic public transport an air craft, Airbus 320, which is popular in Europe, after middle seats being left empty, the capacity is..120 passengers, so what is the risk of 0.5% in opportunity cost of that! Less than 1 infected passengers
Now lets compare that with an example of a domestic public transport: in a small town in Switzerland, a bus operates 16 hours round-trip a day, with an approx.. destination of 20min from point A to point B, and in between there are 15 bus stations, were passengers get in and out without bus being sanitised!, the capacity of bus in average is 40 passengers, plus an average of 5 passengers get in and out in between bus stations and stops! So we talk about 230 passengers in each round-trip, multiplying that by 16 times/hours so it gives us about 3680 passengers in an average moving without a serious restrictions in one town. This number is higher 6 times in passengers comparison to Aircraft if operates 5 times a day with total passenger numbers of 600.. This applies in whole the country. and there are over 2600 stations and stops in Switzerland without even mentioning other transport facilities as trains, trams and etc..
Now I hope the picture is clear Now the question is, and
NOW which has higher risk of infection? Traveling by Air or by domestic public transport?

Shifting Gears for Recovery Rebuilding Travel & Tourism in Latin America ESP

The recording includes Spanish subtitles

As COVID-19 swept through Latin America, it destroyed 4 million jobs in its wake. The closure of international borders to protect public health has been devastating to the sector and made its 2019 GDP contribution of US$ 267 billion, a goal for recovery rather than a marker on its path to future growth. What strategies and policies are being implemented or need to be enacted to recover the millions of jobs destroyed and the US$ 110 billion GDP lost to establish a more resilient, sustainable and inclusive sector?
