Pent up demand?  You bet

Susan Wolfson

There's lots of speculation about the return of the travel industry.  One of the biggest questions is if passenger demand will return and if so, what will the impact of any pent up demand?.  We have a cautionary tale to answer these questions.

Where should we go?

Susan Wolfson

Many of my clients are starting to think about where they should go, once the pandemic restrictions are over.  For some, the choice is easy - simply get back to the destinations that were deferred in 2020.  But for others, this lull has meant that they are
