Canada’s travel industry is emerging from the shadow of COVID-19 in 2022, with substantial rises in both inbound and outbound tourism flows. However, numbers are still far from pre-pandemic levels.
Removed restrictions and increased demand for domestic flights especially are pushing growth in airlines in Canada in 2022, with leading local players Air Canada and WestJet benefiting. Air Canada is seeing substantially higher passenger and operating revenues in 2022 than it did in 2021, while WestJet is not far off pre-pandemic levels of flights.
Hotels catering to leisure-focused tourists are faring somewhat better than those that cater more to international business travellers in 2022. Hotels located in resorts with great capacity for outdoor activities are doing especially well, such as those near national parks and in the wine regions.
Pent-up demand for leisure travel is driving growth in booking in 2022, with resort destinations benefiting most. Intermediaries are taking advantage of such demand and accumulated household savings through specially-designed travel packages targeting the relatively affluent consumer.
Though international travel will rise rapidly thanks to pent-up demand and strong rebounds, domestic travel will remain key to recovery. Canadians will take longer trips in order to explore the regions around them.
