The 27th of September is World Tourism Day. All over the world, people who love travel celebrate this, including Cubafortravel.
Since March 2020, challenging times have begun for tourism, but we celebrate the improvement we feel now and the little light we see at the end of the tunnel.
It is clear for all that travel during the pandemic was not a safe activity. The people who work in the travel industry are aware of this. We have to overcome this pandemic first with vaccination. We have to change part of our lifestyle, so we don’t pass viruses to one another. We have to organize travel with new sanitary protocols. For sure, in this new phase that we are living in now.
Many workers in the travel industry have lost their jobs over the year and have changed their professional life towards another sector. So be it. You don’t need to travel to give other people a job. You travel because you want to because you feel the need. The pandemic has taught us to reflect on travel. There is no doubt that a person who travels has a more rewarding life than someone who doesn’t. To know the world from personal experience is a definite difference from reading about it, learning about it on a screen or from photos. The travel service industry is there to assist people in their travels. Getting assistance from travel agents in making your trip saves you time, avoids costs on the spot, makes you achieve better the goal of your journey, be it leisure, special interests, discovery. Travel agents guarantee your trip has the comfort you are used to at home and at the same time show you the reality of the place you are going to.
