COVID-19 has touched all of our lives in large and small ways, limiting how we have interacted with others and how we moved around – or, in many cases, didn’t. That has led to an enormous pent-up demand for travel. A new survey commissioned by Hilton shows that 81% of Americans, 70% of Brits and 84% of Chinese respondents say that they are missing the opportunity to create new travel memories due to COVID-19 restrictions.
The “To New Memories” survey found that 90% of Americans and 95% of Chinese believe their country is facing a travel memory deficit. In 2021, it seems, consumers plan to make up for the trips they missed amid the pandemic. In fact, 66% of Americans and 60% of Chinese say they will quit putting off “bucket list” trips in the future. Meanwhile, 57% of Brits are already planning trips in 2021.
As we emerge from a grim year and enter a hopeful one – with long-delayed visits to loved ones and unforgettable experiences on the itinerary – here are Hilton’s 21 amazing travel destinations and places to stay:Conrad Abu Dhabi Etihad Towers (Abu Dhabi, U.A.E.)Overlooking the Abu Dhabi skyline, Conrad Abu Dhabi Etihad Towers is the perfect vantage point for taking in all that the United Arab Emirates’ capital city has to offer.
