About the survey
The domestic sentiment tracker was launched in May 2020 in collaboration with VisitScotland and Visit Wales. Initially, the objective was to track trip intentions in reaction to the Covid-19 crisis and understand the trajectory of tourism recovery in the UK. Gradually, the survey started addressing the cost of living crisis and its impact on trip intentions.
The survey covers these areas:
When and where UK adults intend to travel for overnight and day trips;
What activities they are looking for;
Who they are planning to travel with;
What accommodation type, destination type and region they are planning to stay at;
What motivations and barriers they encounter when planning to travel.
The surveys’ focus is on domestic travel – with international travel included –to show a comparison of trip intentions.
Each month’s report is based on a UK nationally representative sample of 1,500 adults aged 16 years and over, with additional boosts for Scotland and Wales.
