Travel in times of Corona

avatar

Times change and this Pandemic has changed even more. The travel industry will likely be one of the biggest victims of the corona crisis.

Corona travel downturns:

  • Who wants to sit in cramped planes for hours on end breathing recycled air?
  • Who wants to go to giant all-inclusive hotels where you mix and mingle with thousands of people sharing the same pools?
  • Who wants to share a beach with thousands of others?
  • Who wants to go on a Cruise ship where you have no option to get out there are infected people on board with the option of a lockdown?

So all travel-related stocks have dropped like a rock (apart from those that have been robinhooded) and rightfully so. Those companies claiming Q2 revenues EBITDAC are just fooling themselves and their shareholders. Pretending the virus is not there does not magically make your company any more solvent.

I know I do not want to own those stocks and do those things but I still want to go out and travel in those conditions. So there are things that have been booming in these times as people search for alternatives.

So what are the options for Corona travel?

  • renting a villa
  • renting a mobile home or caravan
  • camping or glamping
  • small boutique hotels
  • back to nature

So this is what we did ourselves and I guess we are not alone. We wanted to know what it was like to live in a van or mobile home so we rented one for a few days to get the feeling of what this is like. Most of the campings we contacted are booked solid and the mobile homes are really popular to rent right now.
I have to say we really had an amazing time but I do not know if I would really want to live in a camper of this size (and with so few conveniences). The van we rented was not the newest but we did get a taste of the van life and had an amazing 5 days.

So do you have any plans for your holiday?
Are you doing new things or just staying at home?
