Now we have entered a new phase that needs the strength to fight the virus while managing daily life routines at the same time. The entire tourism ecosystem is in shock with the COVID-19 pandemic and it is not so easy to kick-start and recover quickly with confidence and security as we think
Still, it is not yet clear when a more widespread re-opening of borders will happen and under what conditions. Even borders are open, mandatory 14 day quarantine periods for people coming from abroad
Industry players have been proactive in maintaining social distancing and cleaning and hygiene standards, operating standards, and protocols to protect the workers, restoring the confidence of travellers, Tourism recovery plans that the Government takes this time will shape the tourism of Tomorrow. The pandemic impact on the Tourism economy is still difficult to quantify and reopening the sector is overall complex and challenging. Now we require a joined-up approach to reopen and rebuild the destinations. The hurdles count from the restoration of traveller confidence and stimulation of demand with new safe and clean labels, promotional campaigns for domestic tourism promotion, and so on.

Movement and interaction of people are an essential part of the tourism sector and in the moment of social distancing and travel restrictions, and phased basis to open tourism activities are among the last to restart and even open it will be only under new operating procedures in the absence of a vaccine.
Tourism is a labour Intensive service sector and one of the major sources of employment ranges from highly skilled to the low skilled category of jobs and part-time, seasonal, and temporary jobs, which are hardly affected directly by the crisis.
The other issues of the pandemic are how to welcome visitors will be in the destinations, since the negative perception is in the air like tourists are risk carriers, and local communities in destinations reclaimed their local areas which were experiencing overcrowding issues associated with high visitor volumes.
Domestic tourism economy plays an important role in the sector and 75 percent of the total tourism economy in OECD countries has come through it but domestic tourism flow is also affected .but it is expected that Domestic tourism is will play an important role in leading the initial recovery phase of Tourism.
Recovery from the crisis is now expected to be lifted only gradually and be slower. We would have to use this crisis as an opportunity to rethink tourism for the future, through the preparation of comprehensive recovery plans for more sustainable and resilient tourism.
