It all has been predicted that digital transformation in tourism supposed to be sooner than expected due to Covid-19. It was inevitable that digital solutions were going to play an effective role in tourism just like in other industries. However, this became a ‘need’ rather than a ‘choice’ in a blink of an eye.
According to recent research, ‘digital services are vital for travellers. In 2019, more than 40% of US travellers used mobile devices to book their trips. In Europe and the United States, as many as 60% of travel bookings are digital, and online travel agents can have a market share as high as 50%, particularly for smaller independent hotels. COVID-19 is likely to accelerate the shift to digital as travellers look for flexibility and booking lead times shorten. More than 90% of recent trips in China were booked within seven days of the trip itself.’ This is the change only for booking experience. It is not hard to imagine the change in behaviours for ‘during stay services’ and ‘marketing’
Most of the properties were not completely ready for this transformation. This is the reason why it is highly crucial to get support from professional tourism technologies.
