Uphando lwamva nje lokuhlaziya lubonisa ukuba ngaphandle kwe Covid-19 ubhubhane kunye nokuwa okulandelayo kwezokuhamba ngenqwelomoya, kuye kwakho ukonyuka ngomzuzu wokugqibela kubhukisho lwenqwelomoya ngexesha leKrisimesi. Kunyaka oqhelekileyo, amatikiti akhutshelwe ukuhamba ngeveki engaphambi kweKrisimesi ahlala ekhula ngokuqhubekekayo unyaka wonke. Nangona kunjalo, ngo-2020, ipatheni yahlukile, kwaye kwenzeka ngokukhawuleza ngoNovemba.
Ngelixa ukuphakanyiswa kokubhukisha kutsha nje kuyakwamkelwa ngumzi-mveliso wezohambo, ukuhamba ngenqwelomoya kwilizwe liphela ngexesha leKrisimesi, enyanisweni, akuyi kuba yindawo encinci entlango. Amatikiti omoya akhutshelwe ukufika phakathi kwe-19th Kunye ne25th UDisemba ujongeka umi kwinqanaba eliphezulu nge-20.2% kuphela yamanqanaba e-2019 kodwa ukubhukisha ukusuka kwi-1st ukuya 31st NgoJanuwari okwangoku kusezantsi, kwi-11.6% kuphela apho babekwiqondo elifanayo kwi-2019.
Umzuzu wokugqibela wokuhamba ngenqwelomoya ngenqwelomoya sisiphumo ngqo sezithintelo zohambo ezitshintsha rhoqo kubhubhane kunye nokungaqiniseki malunga neengcebiso ezisemthethweni malunga nokuhamba ngexesha leKrisimesi. Kwinqanaba leendawo ezibonakalisa ukuba zezona zilunge kakhulu kwiveki engaphambi kweKrisimesi, ezine kwezintlanu eziphambili ziindawo ezijolise kwiindawo ezifumaneka kulwandle olufudumeleyo olusemazantsi eMelika. Ukusukela nge-8th NgeyoMnga, amatikiti omoya akhutshelwe ukuya eSanto Domingo, ikomkhulu lendawo enye enkulu eCaribbean kubakhenkethi baseMelika, kwiRiphabhlikhi yaseDominican, yayiyi-21.2% kuphela kumanqanaba e-2019. ISan Juan, ikomkhulu lePuerto Rico ithatha indawo yesibini, ngokubhukisha i-39.6% ngasemva. Ilandelwa sisixeko esikhulu saseBrazil, iSao Paulo, indawo yokuhlala yaseMexico, iCancun kunye nenye indawo eshushu yeholide kwiRiphabhlikhi yaseDominican, ePunta Kana, ngasemva kwe-40.3%, 45.5% kunye ne-47.3% ngokwahlukeneyo. Olu luhlu luphambili lutyhila enye indlela, yokuba abantu abaninzi banqwenela ukuthatha iholide. Umboniso owomeleleyo weSao Paulo ungaphantsi kokubaluleka kwayo njengendawo yokuhamba yommandla kunye nabantu ababhabhayo ukutyelela abahlobo kunye nezihlobo.
Kwiminyaka yesiqhelo, sibona abantu bethatha iinqwelomoya ngeenqwelomoya ngexesha leholide yeKrisimesi ukuya kudibana namalungu osapho angakhange ababone okwethutyana. Kodwa kulo nyaka, isimilo esinje siyancitshiswa njengoko sibeka umngcipheko wokusasaza intsholongwane ye-COVID-19; kwaye kusenziwa nzima ngakumbi zizithintelo zohambo ezahlukahlukeneyo. Kwangelo xesha, indawo ezininzi ezixhomekeke kakhulu kukhenketho zenze iinzame ezinzima zokuhlala zivulekele amashishini, zisebenzisa imigaqo-nkqubo enganyangekiyo ne-COVID, ukuqinisekisa ukuba iindwendwe zazo ezixabisekileyo zinokuza kwaye zihlale zikhuselekile.
Oku kuyinyani ngokukodwa kwiindawo ezininzi kwiCaribbean naseMexico, ezingena kwixesha lazo eliphakamileyo. Bayaphumelela kakhulu, xa kuthelekiswa nezinye iindawo zehlabathi, batsala iindwendwe ezivela kwezona ntengiso zabo zibalulekileyo, i-USA, abanomdla weholide ngaphandle elangeni. Okwangoku, bajongeka ngathi bayawagcina amanani abakhenkethi abamalunga ne-50% yamanqanaba aqhelekileyo, nangona oko kuxhomekeke koorhulumente abangazalisekisi nawaphi na amanyathelo okomzuzu wokugqibela ukuthintela umjelo wesithathu.

Siyaqhubeka nokusebenza neenqwelomoya, iihotele kunye nabanye abathathi-nxaxheba abaya kwiindawo ngeendawo ukuqinisekisa ukuba singabamkela kwakhona abakhenkethi abaninzi ngokukhawuleza nangokukhuselekileyo. ”
