A new survey by the European Travel Commission finds that despite concerns about increasing infections of the Delta variant of COVID-19 at destinations, almost 70% of Europeans say they plan to travel between now and the end of January 2022, 35% in their own country and 55% to another country in Europe.

Other significant findings:

  • 50% plan to book a trip as soon as they are vaccinated.
  • 57% expect the EU Digital COVID Certificate to facilitate short-term trip planning.

  • 44% of those aged 54+ plan to travel domestically, vs. 27% of those aged 18-24.
  • Drivers of anxiety about travel include:
    1. Quarantine (cited by 18%)

    3. Possible changes to travel restrictions during trip (15%)
  • Concerns about personal health and safety while traveling relate mainly to:
    1. Air travel (17%)

Results are based on a survey of 4,003 residents of Europe conducted in 3Q2021.
