Bachelor's thesis

Abstract:

The COVID-19 pandemic is by far the worst hit on the tourism industry across the world. The pandemic disrupted supply chains and travel plans for many people who had planned vacations and tours within and outside their home countries. This paper seeks to expose the impacts on tourism with a focus on the United Kingdom. Major service providers in these regions recorded revenue losses by the end of the 2020 financial year. It was in 2020 that the weight of the effects of COVID-19 was felt in many businesses, and this paper compares pre covid performance against covid period performance through comparing the financial statement of 2018 against those of 2020 for select businesses. The safety and innovative measures for the different segments have also been explored. The literature review complemented by an interview with three professionals exposes what worked and what did not work as a measure for improving performance in the supporting segments of tourism for the UK.
