WEEKLY CORONAVIRUS IMPACT ON TRAVEL EXPENDITURES IN THE U.S.

Travel spending grew for the sixth consecutive week in the week ending June 6th, again marking its highest level since March. This expansion has seen travel spending increase 75% from its bottom — the week ending April 25th — but remains severely depressed at about 20% of the average level seen in the weeks leading up to the pandemic. National weekly travel spending rose 7% from the previous week, reaching $4.6 billion. However, this increase merely kept pace with typical seasonal growth as summer weather induces more travel.

2020 restart: a map of where hotels are reopening
|
|
The agency network Traveller Made is mapping the status of its hotel partners. Its goal: An interactive resource for the reopening of 950 luxury hotels and lodges.
Traveller Made, a network of 440 travel agencies in 70 countries, has produced “2020 Restart,” a map showing the reopening status of its preferred hotel partners. About 200 of its 950 preferred properties have provided information about their current status, including whether they are partially or fully open, and if not fully open, their timetable for reopening, among other details.
Although the map was created with Traveller Made members in mind, the hotels are ones which can be booked by any advisor, and Desurmont offered it for posting on TravelWeekly.com so “as many travel designers as possible” can be aware of the properties’ status.
