I’m predicting a strong domestic travel market by Christmas. Whilst international borders remain effectively closed, there would have to be significant pent up domestic travel demand by then. More Australian tourist travel was taken overseas than foreign visitors to Australia before this all happened. A huge chunk of those are still going to want to travel somewhere within Australia, for a short break or family visits. The caravan and camping industry is expecting massive boom times ahead once restrictions are eased.
I don’t think it will be about hundreds of thousands flocking to the Gold Coast, but more like heading off to different places, hiring a car for a few days and exploring towns and areas.
