Skift Take
Skift Research keeps analyzing how the travel recovery is shaping up. It’s needed, because demand remains volatile and none of the 22 markets tracked in the Skift Recovery Index is above 50 percent of prior year performance.
Russia, which was newly added to the Skift Recovery Index, is the strongest performer in the index with signs of a steady rebound. The index continues to track how the travel industry is performing throughout this crisis.
In addition to Russia, six countries last week were added to the index — Argentina, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, South Africa, and Turkey. Besides improving the global index scores, the addition helps travel businesses that are trading in these countries see more nuanced local recovery trends.
