Editorial
Have you ever experienced having your room service delivered by a robot? It happened to me a few years ago in Singapore. Turns out the robot’s food delivery door got jammed and I had to call the super to save the day, but the first impression was awesome.
Now I don’t know when I will see this little robot again as like most business travelers I think twice before taking up any long-distance travel. The travel industry is adapting rapidly to the new behaviors of both business and leisure travelers. New sustainable alternatives are appearing, mobility as a service is on the rise. Picking the right bet is critical and challenging at once as one cannot stay prepared for any possible outcome.
In this issue of This Week in Consulting, we explore the ways the pandemic has impacted the travel industry, some of the likely scenarios lying ahead as well as some fancy industry trends.
Enjoy the read. Feel free to comment. Would love to hear your views.
