Who's travelling? What do they want? How do we reach them? Join Michaela Roebothan, Director of Research for the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, & Recreation for a webinar that will break down 2020 data in useable, bite size pieces. We will also hear from Tourism Operator’s Joe O’Brien – O’Brien’s Boat Tours and John Devereaux – Edge of the Avalon Inn about how they successfully prepared for the 2020 resident market and how they are getting ready for the 2021 market.
In this session, we will take a walk through our resident travel research and discuss how residents’ travel experiences during the Stay Home Year 2020 may help tourism operators prepare for the 2021 season. We will share insights into residents’ travel intentions, interests in activities and experiences and what opportunities exist for operators to build on last year’s resident travel momentum and create offers that provide ‘value for money’. We will also share some ideas about how to address health risks and safety concerns to assure residents that it is safe to travel in the province as we are building back traveller confidence.
*Please note: Event Registration is only open for NL Tourism Operators
