Resurgence of ‘all-inclusive’ tourism projected in the Caribbean in 2022
2022 brings with it a new perspective on tourist travel and the increase in tourists in the Caribbean islands remains positive despite the variants of Covid-19, therefore travel agents and advisers are aware of the pulse of the industry , and they book customers incredible vacations while still managing the “chaotic” changes that have occurred with the ever-changing pandemic.
As a result, they understand that internationally, Mexico and the Caribbean remain the easiest destinations for Americans to travel, with several flight options available. Additionally, limited or no travel restrictions to enter the country are a huge draw for many travelers.
The region also continues to receive a large number of bookings thanks in part to the wide variety of resort options.
“The main travel trend I’m seeing is all-inclusive resorts; while thousands are returning to cruise ships, anti-vaccines are pouring into resorts in Cancun, Jamaica and the Dominican Republic, “said Scott Lara of Cruise Genius.
Meanwhile, Anthony Tucker, vice president and general manager of All Inclusive Outlet, stated that “in 2022 I believe there will be a resurgence for the Caribbean islands, since much of 2021 has been dominated by Mexico and the Dominican Republic due to their requirements. more forgiving up front, but as we move away from 2020, I think the demand for smaller boutique experiences will increase dramatically. ‘
Although they agree that while tropical destinations will continue to dominate, there is still great interest in European destinations such as Greece, Ireland, Iceland, Croatia, Portugal, France and Italy.
In general, advisers remain optimistic that travel will continue to pick up in 2022, because “families for spring break are beginning to look in Europe or in new experiences on the typical Mexico, Dominican Republic and Jamaica.”
“Families want to see a new Caribbean island or just go bigger for spring break this year,” they emphasize according to Travelpulse.
