The impact of the recent coronavirus pandemic on the travel and tourism industry has been severe, with a recorded $443 billion in losses for the US travel economy. This loss has also directly impacted federal, state, and local tax revenue, resulting in $57 billion in losses since March. This significant economic decline is seen as a direct result of the pandemic. The drop in travel and tourism is likely due to the impact of travel on the spread of the virus, as well as the presence of travel restrictions at state and local levels. It has been the recommendation of health officials to restrict social contact and travel to reduce the spread of COVID-19. While this has helped to flatten the curve of infection, the success comes as a direct loss to the travel and tourism industry. Consumer behavior is predicted to be similar to that of the 2008 recession, with an uptake in travel behavior expected as restrictions decrease and travel conditions become safer. Though public health officials stress the importance of restricted travel there are several precautions that consumers can take to make public health and safety a priority while traveling this holiday season.

The Rise of the COVID-19 Pandemic Has Significantly Impacted the Tourism Industry

The tourism industry has seen a significant loss in revenue compared to previous years as a direct result of travel restrictions during the coronavirus pandemic. The impact is felt on a national scale as travel spending has dipped by 41-45% compared to 2019 spending activity. Though there are slight upticks in travel as the year progresses and restrictions ease up, the loss of revenue has deteriorated employment rates throughout the industry with over 3.5 million direct travel jobs having vanished over the course of the last seven months. This loss is projected to continue to grow as it is expected that 50% of direct travel jobs will be lost by December of this year. The impact on the American people is significant, as travel jobs make up for 33% of those lost in the US economy during the pandemic.

Potential Exposure Hazards For Travelers To Avoid

The decline of tourism spending is seen as a direct result of the role travel and social interaction play in the spread of COVID-19. In anticipation of these risks, nearly 50% of Americans have canceled travel plans during the pandemic. A reduction in travel to the United States has been recorded as well. This is likely because travel by plane or bus places consumers within six feet of potential carriers of the novel coronavirus, a violation of recommendations on social distancing made by public health officials. In addition, air, bus, and car travel each create ample opportunity for individuals to come into contact with frequently touched surfaces. Though a small percentage of Americans claim they would book travel plans if proper travel insurance and discounts were available, the potential rebound of the tourism industry relies on safer travel practices of consumers.

How to Make Public Health and Safety a Priority While Traveling

There are many ways consumers can help to rebound the travel industry while still prioritizing public health. The primary components of a low-risk travel experience are maintaining social distance of at least 6 feet whenever possible, reducing the frequency of rest stops, wearing a mask in any circumstance where social distancing is not possible or while indoors, and washing or sanitizing hands regularly. In addition to practicing responsible travel behaviors while traveling, it is important to prepare ahead of time by investigating the travel restrictions, quarantine requirements, infection rates, and testing requirements of the destination. It is recommended that individuals exposed to the virus cancel or postpone any travel plans until a clean bill of health is received.

On his first visit to this scenic country Mark Twain said, “The Creator made Italy from designs by Michelangelo.” Aptly nicknamed “Bel Paese” or beautiful country, Italy is the fifth most popular tourist destination in the world. It is equally well-known for its masterpieces in art and architecture, as for its natural wonders. The boot-shaped archipelago prizes its many coastal delights.

Italian tourist attractions were closed while the COVID-19 preventive measures were in place. As of early June these destinations were reopened to European tourists. Soon they will be accessible again to visitors from around the world. Here are short descriptions of some of the spots that are simply too good to miss.

Cinque Terre

This small coastal town in the province of La Spezia measures merely 12 sq km. Vernazza is one of the most beautiful locales in Italy. It also holds historic importance. The region served as a strategic base in the defence against Saracen pirates. Several watch towers overlook the surrounding sea and land. One of the most frequented tourist spots is the Church of Santa Margherita d’Antochia. Vernazza has three well-known beaches. First of these is Monterroso beach which marks the path to the “old town”. Another one of the beaches is located near the harbor, and is a place to enjoy the quiet waves. The third beach is part of a less frequented area surrounded by cliffs.

Genoa

This is the capital of the Liguria region. Genoa is the birth place of Christopher Columbus. One of its most popular spots is the Palaces of Via Garibaldi. This was home to families of nobles during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Another notable destination is the Acquario di Genova, one of the largest aquariums in Italy. It hosts 400 different species, and is an ideal spot to visit with children. Another jewel of Genoa is the Cathedral of San Lorenzo, which holds many prized ancient artefacts.

Ravello

This destination hosts concerts and festivals so frequently that it has come to be known as the City of Music. Visitors to Ravello also take the time to marvel at the gardens and mansion of Villa Rufolo, a residency of the affluent on the Amalfa coast. The Oscar Neimeyer Auditorium hosts a variety of cultural events and exhibitions. Even without the events the auditorium is admired as a marvel of abstract architecture. The Piazza del Duomo is another place worth a visit. The many restaurants and cafés scattered around the piazza offer refreshing treats to weary tourists.

Puglia

The heel of Italy’s boot is best known for its diversity of valleys and residential landscapes. Castel del Monte is an eight-sided castle constructed by Federico II. It is a most sought-after viewpoint to gaze upon the Valley of Murgia, as well as the Adriatic Sea. The antique town of Monopoli is a place of significant geographic anomalies. Here lie the Grotte di Castellana, ancient caves more than 90 million years old. “The Florence of the South,” better known as Lecce, is an iconic city and a haven for vegetarians. This region is rich in historic sites such as the Roman Amphitheater.

Sardinia

Measuring 24,090 sq km this is the second largest island in the Mediterranean Sea. The attractions of Sardinia include a profusion of white sand beaches and hill tops. Many ancient structures on the island are now protected as UNESCO world heritage sites. Some of these date back to 1500 BC. By contrast the port area of Costa Smeralda offers glimpses of luxury yachts, and a chance to stay at one of the many luxury resorts. The port was built in the 1960s and is still operational today.

In summary

Not least of Italy’s attractions are its people. The country is home to a vibrant collection of international cultures. Millions of migrants live and work in Italy, particularly in tourism and hospitality. Many of them send money to their families using the Ria Money Transfer App. Italy remains high on the list of millions of international travelers in 2020.

Indonesia, fascinating, exciting and in many ways, mysterious. This Southeast Asian nation wallows between the Pacific and Indian oceans and is an archipelago of more than 17,000 islands, including Borneo, Sumatra, Java and New Guinea. Covering almost 2 million square kilometers and with a population of 267 million people, Indonesia is the world’s 14^th most populous country, with Java being home to more than half of the country’s population.

The Indonesian archipelago was dominated by Dutch colonials from the early 17^th century, and in the year 1800 the Dutch declared the archipelago as a nationalized colony, officially naming it as the Dutch East Indies. Japanese occupation followed during World War II, and with its end in 1945, the desire for national independence grew. Finally, in December 1949 the domestic struggle for independence came to fruition. Frustrated by the level domestic anti colonial activity, and due to international pressure, the Dutch recognized Indonesia’s independence.

Its history has shaped and molded the culture and psyche of the nation and its people. The remnants and influences of the past are evident throughout the islands, whilst each holds its own peculiar uniqueness. This is never less true than on the island of Lembongan. With a population of only around 5,000, and with just 8 square kilometers of land area, Lembongan has an irresistible charm which unfathomably draws people to its shores.

Lembongan, Getting There

Sited off the Northwestern tip of Penida island and Southeast of Bali, Lembongan is easily reached. Although it is possible to reach the island by helicopter, boat is the normal form of transport to and from the island. Locals are inclined to use the cheapest method of transport, the public slow boat from Bali. It may be slow, the crossing is around 90 minutes, but it is a fun way of experiencing the way the locals travel.

At the other end of the scale, there are the cruise ships which depart from Bali’s Benoa harbor. These are large, modern vessels which not only offer the transfer to Lembongan, but also fun and explorative day packages for visitors. By far the most popular method of getting to the island is by using the fast cruisers which operate 4 daily services to the island. These cruisers are fast, the crossing is exhilarating and an exciting way to begin your visit to Lembongan. For most visitors the chosen method of transport is largely down to budget and, or, the experience they desire.

Staying on Lembongan

The available accommodation on Lembongan is as varied as the visitors that venture upon its shores. Every desire and budget is catered for. For those that seek a bit of luxury, there are hotels such as The Tamarind Resort. Air conditioned rooms, Wi-Fi, satellite TV, a la carte restaurant a gym and sauna make The Tamarind Resort, and others of the same ilk, a desirable, and expensive, way to enjoy Lembongan.

Of the mid-range accommodation, and a little further to the West near Mushroom bay, is Sanghyang Bay Villas. Traditional Indonesian style, and more Western style, villas offer surprisingly well appointed accommodation set in manicured gardens with pool, restaurants and bars. This, and others like it, are popular with couples and families and offer exceptional value for money.

At the budget end of the market, there are plenty of hostels geared up for the backpacker and explorer. From as little as $11 a night, to the Southwest of the island, visitors can stay at hostels such as the Titi. They offer single and twin rooms with private bathrooms set in picturesque gardens. With breakfast usually included in the price, these hostels are an ideal, affordable base from which to explore all that Lembongan has to offer.

What to do on Lembongan

The crystal, turquoise waters around Lembongan act as a magnet, drawing visitors to it with an irresistible urge to become part of it. No visitor is able to resist the calm warm waters of the island, swimming and snorkeling seems almost mandatory. For beginners and experienced snorkelers and divers, Lembongan is just perfect. Exploring the myriad of coral reefs is unforgettable, and for the more adventurous, the eerie underwater world of the mangroves must be explored.

Surfing is popular on Lembongan with 3 world class breaks that attract novice and skilled surfers from across the world. The surf rises throughout the year and there are plenty of surf clubs that offer equipment hire advice and lessons for the beginners. Many visitors come to the island having never surfed in their life, they leave addicted to the adrenaline rush that the waters around Lembongan has given them.

Lembongan, Just Relax

Jungut Batu is the main beach on the island, and also where most of the boat arrivals land. The white sand and clear water are certainly beautiful and, at its Northern end, the waters are calmed by the outlying reef. Jungut Batu is perfect for lazy days in the sun or wallowing in the warm water. But the island is spoilt with so many perfect beaches, Coconut Beach, Sandy Bay, Dream Beach and Secret Beach at Mahana Point are just a few of the “Oh so perfect” beaches to be found on the island.

Exploration, relaxation, meditation, discovering Lembongan is just as much about discovering yourself. You may visit and leave, but, somehow, Lembongan never really leaves you.

 

In the coming weeks and months, it is highly likely travellers all over the world will be able to start traveling again. It might be awhile before some major travel destinations are willing to open the doors for vacationers to come visiting, but eventually, things should start returning to normal. The catch is. “What will the new normal look like?”

While the COVID19 pandemic has wreaked havoc on pretty much every industry in pretty much every country, it is pretty clear the travel industry has been hit particularly hard. In the end, it is a good bet that some airlines and hotel chains will be forced to consider seeking bankruptcy protection from creditors. It is also a good bet major vacation attractions and amusement parks will take awhile to ramp back up to pre COVID19 levels while they seek out ways to ensure visitors are being kept safe from further epidemics or pandemics.

After spending a month or two in lockdown mode, you will need to decide how you personally feel about traveling to vacation destinations far from home. The stories of cruise ship passengers being stranded at sea for weeks or months could be cause for pause if you had an interest in seeing the world by ship. What is the likelihood you are going to feel comfortable visiting crowded vacation hot spots where people from all over the world congregate for fun and relaxation?

Clearly, the way the world views nonessential travel is going to change. Fear has a habit of causing these kinds of changes. As you contemplate putting together your next travel plans, you need to figure or where you can go and feel safe.

How to Get the Most from Your Travel Post COVID19 Pandemic

Here is a recommendation. Wherever you go from now on, go all in. Maybe the secret to you getting the most out of your travel is to travel less but extract more from your time traveling. How should you go about this?

If you are traveling less, you can allocate more travel dollars to each trip. That means seeing more attractions and securing better accommodations.

If you are traveling less, you might want to allocate more time to each trip. Clearly, you can experience more in two weeks than you can in one week.

If you are traveling less, you do not want to let any moment go to waste. If you are enjoying a cup of coffee in a local café or sitting poolside, there is nothing wrong with registering with an online casino and playing games of chance for real cash. With so many more countries now on board with allowing residents to gamble online, this is quickly becoming a favourite adult online pastime. If interested, you should have no problems locating top casino in London. Find ways to enjoy every minute of your vacation.

In the future, travellers need to be a little more cautious. Cutting down on the frequency of travel could be part of being cautious. That does not mean you should discount looking for ways to get as much out of every traveling experience as possible.

With a coastline that extends to more than 40,000 kilometres, Australia is, without a doubt one of the best destinations for beach-goers. There are numerous beaches to choose from that it would take you more than 27 years to visit them all, according to Travellers.

However, hitting an Aussie beach won’t be complete without wearing the proper beach outfit whether you are going for a swim, sunbathing, or engaging in beach sports.

If you are going on an Aussie beach trip soon and currently in the market looking for something to wear, then be sure to read on as this article will give you smart reasons why black cheeky bikini bottoms in Australia is a must-have.

Shows Less Skin

Some bikinis or swimwear have minimal coverage, which means individuals that use them will have to show a little more skin. Not precisely the right choice for women who prefer to show less skin when on the beach.

Famous beaches in Australia such as Bondi Beach are known to be one of the busiest beaches because it welcomes thousands of locals and tourists throughout the year, according to Experience OZ. If you are headed to Bondi Beach and would like to wear something conservative, a cheeky black bikini can offer a solution.

You can get black cheeky bikini bottoms in Australia that cover more surface area of the body, which makes it the perfect choice for women who don’t like showing too much skin.

Accentuates the Body

While a black cheeky bikini offers more coverage than other bikinis, that does not mean you would not look good and would not be able to flaunt your body. The black cheeky bikini is designed to have thin sides that help accentuate your legs, making them look lengthier and more attractive.

If you are planning to visit a busy beach in Australia such as Surfers Paradise or Bells Beach, the black cheeky bikini is undoubtedly a right choice. It will surely make you aesthetically appealing and a head-turner among other beach-goers.

Quick Dry Fabric

Let’s face it. It’s hard to look good in a bikini that’s wet because it may bulge downward or tend to sink because of the added weight of the water. Fortunately, a black cheeky bikini provides a solution to this predicament.

Black cheeky bikinis are made with high-quality swimwear material that dries fast when you take a break from swimming. This means you don’t have to worry about looking bad after taking a dip in Australia’s famous beaches such as Byron Bay and Mandalay Beach.

Comfortability

Beaches in Australia such as Whitehaven Beach, Wineglass Bay, and Cable Beach are known to be the best spots for sunbathing, according to CNN Travel. However, sunbathing can be uncomfortable if you are wearing inappropriate swimwear since the fabric can dig into your skin together with sand.

Black cheeky bikini bottoms were created with the comfort of the user in mind, which is why it is seamless. You won’t have to worry about the bikini causing redness and irritation, and you can focus on having a good time at the beach.

The cheeky black bikini is undoubtedly one of the best swimwear and a must-have for your Aussie beach trip. You can never go wrong in choosing it, so get yours today!

If you are yet to try doing a staycation, you need to give it a chance finally. It’s a popular type of vacation these days where you don’t have to leave town. In some instances, you don’t even have to leave home. You can still experience the same positive feeling that you get when you decide to travel elsewhere. You can start by renting a large house like the ones at thewowhousecompany.co.uk. These are the reasons why having this type of vacation is a practical choice.

You don’t have to spend a lot of money

With a staycation, there’s no need to book an airline ticket or worry about local transportation. You also don’t need to pay entrance fees to visit stunning tourist destinations. Granted, a large house to rent is expensive, but the overall cost will still be lower in the end.

You won’t stress out

Going on a trip can be fun and exciting, but planning can be extremely stressful. Therefore, you could instead schedule a staycation where you only stay home or in a local place, and call it a day. Once you finish paying the reservation, you’re good to go. It’s not like when you’re planning a trip where everything can be exhausting. You won’t make it on your chosen date, or the hotel room you want isn’t available. The problems can pile up until you’re no longer in the mood to travel.

You get your money’s worth

Imagine staying in a house that looks like a mansion owned by some wealthy celebrities for a night or two. It feels like you won the lottery. The place has everything that you and your entire family want to have. From an entertainment room to a golf club, everything is possible. You might not even want to come back home after the experience. Yes, you might spend a lot, but you’ll also get a lot in return.

You can achieve your goal

You keep telling yourself to travel so that you can see a lot of travel destinations when your primary goal is just to relax. There’s no point in stressing yourself out to organize a costly trip to a distant location when you can just stay home or in a nearby place, and feel relaxed. You won’t even mind making it a regular thing because you will enjoy every aspect of it. For sure, your kids will love it too.

You feel inspired 

When you first see the place where you’re staying, you might feel bad. You think that your house is garbage compared to that place. However, you will eventually realize that you can also do the same to your place. You can buy a few decorations and transform the house. In the future, leaving home won’t be necessary if it looks like the place of your dreams. You will also look forward to heading home at the end of the workday because you have a relaxing place waiting for you.

 

The idea of renting a large house on a short trip might seem impractical. You have to pay a lot for the property, and you will only stay there for a night. Before you abandon this idea, you need to understand that it’s a popular choice. Many people love staying in such houses and feel like they own the place even for one night. These are the reasons why it’s practical to consider staying in these properties.

You can bring your entire family or group with you 

The cost might be high when you first look at it. However, if you consider the fact that the house can accommodate ten or more people, it will help reduce the cost per head. You can divide the amount within your group. If you’re travelling as a group, you might have to book several hotel rooms to fit all of you. In the end, you will save more money by renting a large house.

You can reduce the cost for services 

When you stay in a hotel on a trip, you still head out for a relaxing day at the spa or to the nearest resort to use the pool. If you’re into golf, you might even have to visit a local golf club. These services and activities will cost you a lot. If you rent a large house, you might find one which already has a pool, a Jacuzzi and a swimming pool. Others even have a bike trail, fitness gym and library. In short, there’s no need for you to consider going to other places to use these services; you can enjoy whatever there is in the place you rent.

You might cancel other plans

Given that everything you want on a trip is already available in the place you rent, you might not want to leave. There’s no need to spend on other activities while you’re on holiday. You will be busy enjoying the house and everything in it. You will also save money on local transportation since you won’t be going elsewhere.

There are promotions available too

If you think only hotels offer promotions, you’re wrong. Even the owners of big houses provide special deals. You could get a low price if you’re lucky enough to find the right promotion. As long as you’re quick in making the reservation upon the release of the ad, you will get a low price.

Think about what you’ll get from the large houses for rent and the amount you will spend. You will then realize that the price is actually affordable. You might even consider this type of accommodation for any future trips. Don’t forget to compare the choices first and find one that suits your budget and preferences. You can also ask your kids if there’s a specific feature that they want to have.

You can make your reservation now and have a wonderful adventure on your next trip.

 

Mississippi is a paradise for music writers and connoisseurs, so to be here and not to be at least once in a place associated with art is a true crime. Go to a jazz concert – the benefit of clubs with this music in the cities of Mississippi are present in an enviable amount. The state gave the world the famous writer William Faulkner – visit his Rowan Oak house, preserved in the same form as it was during the life of the creator. Copyright www.orangesmile.com

You should visit Vicksburg National Park, also known as the Military Historical Park. During the war in the nineteenth century, Jackson was besieged – for a month and a half. The main attractions – preserved forts and other military fortifications in the park – to this day remind of those years. In total, the park has about 1,400 memorials and memorials. Here you can literally feel like a participant in the battle: on the territory there are preserved trenches and ditches, the total length of which exceeds thirty kilometers, as well as old houses and more than a hundred guns. Entrance to Vicksburg is paid, but there are also open days.

Jackson is a city that was destroyed to the ground during the war between the northern troops and the southerners, therefore, there are practically no historical objects in it. If you are interested in history, then visit the Capitol. The building itself was built in the first half of the nineteenth century, and now the state historical museum is located inside, mainly represented by exhibits related to the struggle of residents for rights.

We also recommend visiting the Museum of Agriculture and Forestry in Jackson. A significant exhibit here is agricultural land built in the mid-nineteenth century. Another interesting object of a permanent exhibition is a miniature street of the thirties of the last century, on which there is a candy store. With children of all ages, head to the Münell Ardens Zoo or the State Museum of Natural Sciences. Visit the folk-art gallery for a tour of Native American creations and some souvenirs made by the Indians.

Biloxi is another significant city in the state of Mississippi. It is not only a tourist magnet, but also an important port. Do you consider yourself a gambler? If yes, then here for your entertainment the doors of many gambling clubs are open (casinos, of course, are legal!). You can choose to stay in Beau Rivage.

Located in Biloxi, the Beau Rivage is within a 30-minute drive of Gulfport-Biloxi International Airport and includes a sauna and an outdoor pool. It is surrounded by a variety of popular restaurants and is less than a 10-minute walk from Biloxi Amtrak Station. This 4-star hotel has express check-in and check-out, a coffee shop / café, and valet parking. Welcoming and professional, the team is available at any time. Beau Rivage has 1740 elegant rooms offering all the essentials to ensure an enjoyable stay.

Beau Rivage Biloxi Resort & Casino has a restaurant and bar, where you can relax at the end of the day with a dinner and a drink. Guests who want to have fun after dinner can visit the casino.

Beau Rivage is conveniently located for travelers wanting to be close to Biloxi’s main attractions, with Beau Rivage just five minutes away. You will be within walking distance of Biloxi Light.

If you don’t want to experience fortune in Biloxi, but prefer peace and quiet in the city, go to the national library. Of the interesting city structures, we highlight the city lighthouse.

The small town of Olive Branch deserves attention because it has the largest bonsai tree nursery in the United States. You will be able to get acquainted with all species, learn about their breeding, and also buy these tiny trees in pots for yourself and loved ones for a gift. And finally, the last state attraction on our list, but definitely not the least, is the Mississippi National Natural Monument, a forest of fossils.
