Revenge Travel: A Case of Pandemic Fatigue and Boredom
Abstract
With the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, the people and their lives have been affected. The social distancing norms and the hygiene issues completely broke down the travel and tourism sector and people forgot what holidays and vacations were. Then came the period when the clutches of virus loosened and so did the lockdown, and people got an opportunity to open their windows and step out of their homes. Trapped under boredom and fatigue due to pandemic, people wanted to visit more, spend more on their holidays and trips, and thus emerged the concept of revenge tourism. Not only domestically, this phenomenon was observed globally when people flocked to nearby tourist destinations to ease their psychological stress as and when restrictions on lockdown were lifted. Revenge tourism is a recent phenomenon that is fueled by the monotony and the boredom faced by the people during the lockdowns imposed on them. The desire to participate in such a practice has been accentuated by the strict health rules and prolonged home traps.
