Domestic travel will be a top choice

Almosafer has conducted a study amongst over 3,000 Saudi nationals to gauge people’s travelling behaviour post COVID-19 and found that domestic travel will be a top choice once lockdown restrictions ease.

• The domestic travel leisure market is expected to see a boost with 35% Saudis keen on discovering the growing cultural, adventure and entertainment offerings in their home country, as they chose staycation as a preferred travel option post pandemic.
• The results in terms of domestic travel are consistent with searches across the Almosafer app and web searches as compared to the month of April. An 83% increase in domestic tourism was recorded from May 1 till date.
