Yinto eyaziwayo ukuba ubhubhane wehlabathi wenze umonakalo kwishishini lokuhamba, ngokufika kwamazwe apheleleyo kwikota yesithathu yonyaka wama-94% ezantsi kwangexesha elinye ngo-2019. Kodwa uphando olutsha lutyhila ukuba kungabakho intwana yethemba kwangoko emazantsi e- i-USA.
Ukubhukisha uhambo ukuya kwiindawo ezishushu zeholide eMexico nakwiziqithi ezahlukahlukeneyo zeCaribbean kwikota yesine yonyaka, kujongeka kukubi kakhulu kunakuzo zonke iindawo ehlabathini. Ukusukela nge19th NgoSeptemba, ukubhukishwa kweenqwelomoya kwihlabathi liphela kwikota yesine ye-2020 bekuyi-83% ngasemva apho babekwimzuzu elinganayo kunyaka ophelileyo.
Nangona kunjalo, ukubhukisha (ngokobungakanani bemakethi) kuzo zonke iimarike zamanye amazwe ukuya eMexico, kwiRiphabhlikhi yaseDominican, eJamaica, ePuerto Rico naseAruba zazisemva ngama-52%, 59%, 56%, 47% kunye nama-50% ngokwahlukeneyo.
Ngokwabahlalutyi beshishini, into eyenza i-Mexico yahluke, kunye nezinye iziqithi zeCaribbean, kukuba bahlala bevulelekile kubakhenkethi ngexesha lobhubhane, okanye baphinde bavule kungekudala, kwaye, ngenxa yoko, bafumana isabelo sentengiso.
Iindawo ezimbini ezimileyo ziseMexico, eSan Jose del Cabo, kuLwandlekazi lwePasifiki, indawo eshushu yokusefa, kunye neCancun, apho iGulf yaseMexico idibana neCaribbean, indawo eshushu yokuntywila. Zombini zibonise ukukhula kubhukisho lwenqwelomoya lweveki ngeveki oluvela eMelika kwiiveki ezine zokuqala zikaSeptemba (1st - 27th), NgeCancun ibuyele apho yayikhona ngexesha elilinganayo kwi-2019 naseSan Jose del Cabo 26% ngaphambili.
Ngokuncedayo, i-Latin America "ithengisiwe" ngo-Septemba, kunye nexabiso lomoya lokuhamba kwikota yokugqibela yonyaka li-15-30% ezantsi kumaxabiso e-2019. Imali yokuya kwiCaribbean nayo ibisezantsi kakhulu, ngakumbi isuka eFrance naseMelika, apho izaphulelo zigqithe kuma-20%.
Ngaphandle kobhubhane kunye nezithintelo zokuhamba ezinxulumene noko, abanye abantu basenomdla wokuthatha iholide phesheya, ngelanga nolwandle lubonakala luthandwa ngokukodwa. Iingcali zeshishini zilindele ukuba ukubuyela kwimeko yesiqhelo kuya kukhokelwa kukubhukisha 'okokugqibela' ngeeholide zokuhamba ixesha elifutshane, kunye nokuhamba kunye nokuhamba ixesha elide. Umceli mngeni weendawo zokutsala kukutsala iindwendwe. Njengendawo ephambili ekuyiwa kuyo, iMexico iqhube kakuhle kakhulu kule meko, ibonakalisa ukuba kunokwenzeka ukubhalisa ukukhula kweyona ndawo ibalulekileyo kwintengiso yayo, nkqu nakwiimeko ezinzima kakhulu.
INTO ONOKUYITHATHA KWELI NQAKU:
- The two stand-out destinations are in Mexico, San Jose del Cabo, on the Pacific Ocean, a hot-spot for surfing, and Cancun, where the Gulf of Mexico meets the Caribbean, a hot-spot for scuba diving.
- Both showed growth in weekly flight bookings from the USA in the first four weeks of September (1st – 27th), with Cancun back to where it was during the equivalent period in 2019 and San Jose del Cabo 26% ahead.
