Traveling will and has changed drastically post covid. Before covid, traveling meant packing clothes, booking tickets and leaving but now traveling means, getting corona tests, packing extra masks, doing online registration on state portals, going through random rapid testing and then leaving. Most people are not traveling due to mainly two reasons first is precautions against corona and second is that the ones willing to travel do not want to go through such long processes. Covid started in late 2019 and is still impacting people in 2021. Almost all sectors have been affected throughout the world and the worst affected is the tourism sector. Some sectors have completely vanished too. Many hotels were shut down temporarily and permanently due to lack of guests and increased expenses which led to laying off employees of several hotels. Small and big restaurants were shut down too because their sales were next to zero. Only some middle ranged restaurants survived which were delivering food throughout the pandemic through food delivery apps. Tourism still ranks first on the list of top affected sectors. This happened because of ban of flying and travelling. Some airlines and private trains had to pause their operations temporarily because there were only some passengers who were willing to travel and only running transport for them would have put the companies in great loss. Some airlines had contracts with the government to run their operations for medical and emergency travels which included Vande Bharat Programme and other programmes which delivered medical and emergency supplies to various states throughout the country.
Traveling and tourists in many states are still banned due to corona cases but some great places are open too and expecting and accepting tourists with open arms. Some states are allowing such travels because tourism will not only promote their state but also help them in re-establishing after the pandemic is over and people start travelling again.
