Travel in Belgium continues to recover from the slump in 2020 caused by the exigencies of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The recovery started in 2021, although there were more limitations on growth as the threat of the pandemic lingered and restrictions on travel and tourism products and services remained in place, if easing.
Airlines’ value sales growth was fuelled by Easter and summer holidays in Southern Europe, both city trips and sun and sea holidays, in 2022. Growth drivers included much lower rates of COVID-19 infection in most of Europe, pent up demand for travel and higher consumer savings levels due to travel restrictions during the pandemic, which allowed them to spend more on holidays.
During 2022, hotels continued to recover from the slump in value sales caused by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on travel and tourism in 2020. The reduced threat of COVID-19 infection precipitated fast-growing interest in Belgium as a convenient, affordable and safe holiday destination.
The waning of the COVID-19 threat is providing a fillip to booking in 2022. In this vein, air travel is benefiting strongly.
Inbound arrivals and outbound departures are set to rebound in terms of value (constant 2022 prices) sales and number of trips in the forecast period as the global pandemic recedes. However, in the short term, domestic travel remains popular, with outbound travel expected to continue to be concentrated in Europe and Mediterranean countries.
