Tourism can plummet 25% due to coronavirus

Tourism is the sector most affected by the effects of the coronavirus crisis. If at first the alert was triggered by the decrease in Chinese tourists, who spend the most, in other destinations, the expansion of the pandemic puts the entire world sector in check. A first impact has been made by the World Tourism Council (WTTC), which is the organization that represents the main companies in the sector worldwide, since the WHO has declared the world pandemic.

Maribel Rodríguez Gamero, Executive Vice President of the WTTC, explained to La Vanguardia that global business may fall by 25% and that 50 million jobs are at risk worldwide. “At the moment, we believe that some 850,000 people will stop traveling. This implies that they will not use any means of transport, or hotels, or consume in bars. This may mean that business in the tourism sector is going to drop by around 25%, something like if we consider a total closure of three months in a row of all activity in both business and vacation tourism, "he says.
