Early in the pandemic, many experts had predicted that international business trips would start to recover in 2021. However, business travel has proven to be a much more complex sector than leisure travel during this time. Leisure travel detractors often center around economic, environmental, and safety issues. However, business travel encompasses not only all these issues but also the added layers of corporate responsibility, budgeting, and the evolution of hybrid working.

Many domestic travel restrictions were lifted in 2021, and there is a growing positive sentiment from workers about returning to the office.
