UK tourism set for slow recovery

UK tourism is set for a slow recovery from the pandemic, with spending by holidaymakers this year expected to be just half the level of 2019.
 
Forecasts by the VisitBritain agency indicate that domestic tourism will be worth £51.4 billion in 2021, down from £91.6 billion two years ago.
 
Last year, the domestic tourism industry shrank by about two-thirds as coronavirus restrictions forced the cancellation or postponement of millions of people's travel plans. 
 
According to the tourism industry, that represented a £58 billion loss to the economy.
