Global Poll: Road Warriors are Eager to Get Back to Traveling
Business travel has become the latest casualty of the coronavirus pandemic by coming to a halt across the globe, according to the latest research conducted by the Global Business Travel Association (GBTA). This is the fifth poll that GBTA is releasing and the numbers are dire.
“With the spread of the coronavirus and many countries under quarantine and other restrictions, it is not surprising that business travel has come to a halt. The toll in terms of public health and the global economy cannot be overstated. We applaud government actions and financial assistance to help address the global crisis and stabilize global economies. The survey shows that travelers are eager to get back on the road, which is a positive sign for future business travel. Once this pandemic is successfully combatted, business travel can return to being a positive economic driver of the global economy,” said Scott Solombrino GBTA’s chief operating officer and executive director.
