Presentation: Walking The Tightrope Reopening Survey

Arival, the global research authority on tours, activities, and attractions, has been regularly surveying operators since mid-March to gauge the COVID-19 pandemic’s effect on their business.

Summary

Arival conducted its Reopening Survey between May 15 and June 15, 2020, to track the state of reopening among tour, activity and attraction operators and the steps they are taking to address health and safety concerns around COVID-19.

The survey was fielded with the help of the following partners: bookingkit, Checkfront, FareHarbor, GetYourGuide, GlobalTix, Groupon, Leisure Pass, Local Food Adventures, Peek, Rezgo, Tourpreneur, Trekksoft, US Travel’s National Council of Attractions & Experiences, and Walks.

The Arival ‘Walking The Tightrope’ Reopening Survey, part of the ongoing Arival Coronavirus Pulse, measures the following:

The state of reopening and when operators plan to restart
The health and safety procedures mandated local authorities
The additional procedures operators are implementing
Steps operators are taking on all of their operations, including changes to products, marketing and sales
Operator plans for rehiring staff
How operators are communicating their health and safety procedures to their customers and industry partners
Operator satisfaction with health and safety guidance from local authorities
The resources operators are using to develop their reopening plans
