Monitoring Sentiment for Intra-European Travel – Wave 6

TRAVEL SENTIMENT IS WARMING UP WITH SUMMER IN SIGHT, BUT EUROPEANS ARE CONCERNED ABOUT GETTING THE MOST OUT OF THEIR HOLIDAYS

• 56% of Europeans are feeling positive about taking their summer holidays, while only 27% are reluctant to travel within the next six months
• 1 in 2 Europeans feel more optimistic about travel as a result of the vaccine rollout
• The limited scope of holiday activities, due to COVID-19 restrictions, weigh on the minds of Europeans

The project “Monitoring Sentiment for Domestic and Intra-European Travel” gauges the sentiment, drivers and behaviours for domestic and intra-European travel in ten high-volume European source markets – Germany, United Kingdom, France, Netherlands, Italy, Belgium, Switzerland, Spain, Poland and Austria. Key findings and recommendations for destinations and tourism authorities are made available in monthly reports since September 2020.

This project is co-funded by the European Union.
