What do these have to do with Finland?  A bit off topic.

I think if you asked anyone in practically any country right now; 'Do you want to go on vacation this year' the answer would be yes!

 

We all want thing to get back to normal and resume our lives.

 

That being said, we just don't know when normality will return. 

 

Between vaccine rollouts, covid mutations, lockdowns, travel bans, we are an awful long way from anything resembling normality.

 

I'd just be happy to be able to go to a restaurant full of people, sit down and enjoy dinner for God's sake.

So let's take some baby steps towards normality before we start anticipating the return of mass international tourism.

Great news!

Ah wait!....did it say....next winter??

How many of the hotels will be still solvent by then?

.. trips can report that Finns have definitely caught the traveling bug ...

 

Probably not the best description if the Finn's expect to be welcomed here. The mere though of the words foreigner and bug in the same sentence will result in two weeks detention.

If I was a tourist hoping to visit Thailand, I wouldn't book anything before the "reopening" actually happens!

I think most people who have not invested in pyramid schemes, bought real-estate in a Florida swamp, and as children weren't dropped on their heads repeatedly would agree with you.

Don't you mean "what" rather than "when"

I am definitely not from that region but, correct me if I am wrong as it seems to be meaning: 

General Research (or General statement for Yleistuutus)  in Economic Research (for Taloustutkimus).  

From a Google translate...but then again....I thought that the latter was a mix of Greek and Latin ????

No, It is typing error or something like that

 

It should be "Yle Uutiset" ( Yle news )

 Yle – the Finnish Broadcasting Company is Finland's national public service media company.

If it continues at that pace, there will be no Finns left by coming winter.

as of January 15 the only countries showing Green in the European Covid Map were Greece and Finland.

If someone wants to see orginal source link it is

https://yle.fi/uutiset/3-11721860

Sorry only finnish but of cource there is always google translator.

 

Not perfect though. It seems this "Yleistuutus"-error was not typing error. It was "google translator" error.

Pretty easy job to be journalist nowdays. You just use google translator and you have "a new article" from overseas...????

One in four Finns plans to travel abroad as soon as Covid-19 restrictions allow it and next winter’s bookings to Thailand have already reached a record high.

25% of Finns plan to go on holiday as soon as possible and a high percentage will come to Thailand.... yeah okay !!!

[garyk]

Well I guess so, if one booked this winter and next winter 2 booked that would be a 100% increase. Cannot argue with those numbers.

Well, thats a really good question.

 

Even in non tourist countries restaurant's and hotels are going to the wall. Hard to stay alive with little or no customers, yet you still have rent, utilities to pay.

 

It's hard to say in every country what it'll look like when we finally emerge from this nightmare

You may very well be right!  I apologize!!!!!

 

Just read this.  Extremely depressing.  Australia seems to take the lead with this.  Sucks.
