The survey showed that 37% of respondents said they are interested in promotions on food and beverages, spa packages or free short tours at their destinations.
Many travelers also expect more flexible booking policies, as their plans set out in the past year have been postponed for many reasons.
Nearly one third of respondents said that after more than three months under home quarantine, they look forward to spending time by the beach or exploring nature on their first trip after the pandemic. Others would love to spend more time with their loved ones since social distancing has led to temporary separation among many families.
On average, 4 out of 10 Vietnamese people in the survey are ready to travel within 4 months after social distancing while another 14% said they are ready for their trip within the first month after social distancing is lifted.
About 16% said they will only make travel plans once the country’s COVID-19 vaccination rate reaches 80% or Vietnam has achieved herd immunity.
