Where the Germans want to spend their summer holiday after the shutdown

Abstract

An analysis with Google Trends shows shifts in the holiday planning of Germans in summer 2020 due to the corona crisis. The search volume for holidays within Germany has recovered to pre-crisis levels. In some cases, there is even a sharp increase, reaching twice the seasonal average. However, it is questionable whether the increase in German tourists can compensate for the lack of foreign tourists.
