I've worked in the tourism industry in California for 30 years now, and there's been nothing to compare to 2020/2021.
My workplace (Disneyland) finally reopened a month ago with elaborate restrictions in place (Guests and employees masked, Park attendance severely capped, restaurants with just a few tables, distancing markers and plexiglass shields everywhere, an army of employees disinfecting all surfaces constantly).
On June 15 California lifted all restrictions regarding public places. I think we are one of the last States to do so.
So tourism is up, travel is up, and this tourism season is salvageable here.
Are the lifting of restrictions in Scotland coming too late to save this season? Then we have to look for a huge rebound of tourism in 2022. I feel sure it's coming due to millions having put off their plans for two years.
The tourism infrastructure in the UK might be strained as never before.
