Colleen Durant, CEO of Knysna Tourism, said things were looking positive ahead of Easter.
KwaZulu-Natal economic development and tourism MEC Ravi Pillay said the province had bucked the trend of dismal bookings in the wake of Covid-19 restrictions and was experiencing a resurgence of interest and visitors. “In February there were only about 35% of the seats on the market that we as an industry are capable of operating and that is up to between 65 and 70% now, which is great, but still not at a point where airlines can think of operating profitably,” he said.
“Usually we see two sorts of trends - people heading from inland to the coast, and then a fair number of folks from the Western Cape going to the Eastern Cape,” he said.Dr Unathi Sonwabile Henama, tourism lecturer at the Tshwane University of Technology , said the Easter period was an opportunity for the tourism industry to accelerate recovery after the Covid-19 pandemic and lockdown regulations had a detrimental impact on the economic prospects of the tourism industry.
