The world is experiencing another harsh wave inflicted because of the new variant of the coronavirus. The tourism industry was optimistic of recovery in 2022 after two years of slow business. However, that might not be true for all kinds of tourism, especially after the Omicron wave.
Business tourism is the saviour 
All kinds of leisure are the first ones to hit back in scenarios like these. Such is the case with leisure tourism, as, after the Christmas and New Year celebrations, world tourism is experiencing another setback.
It is most probable that leisure tourism will pick up steam once the COVID cases worldwide go down. So, either the world has to wait for natural flattening of the curve, or boosters might give us an edge over the virus.

Nonetheless, we have business tourism in-store to focus upon until its leisure counterpart picks up steam. Leisure as an activity might be subject to restrictions, but business never stops. Although, many firms have shifted to the digital paradigm for international dealings and communications. However, several still depend upon physical travel for their business forums.
So, as business travel continues, there are things that business travellers need to know. The situation is not normal as many rules and regulations are changing. With the spread of the new variant, everything has become too vulnerable. Thus, business travellers need proper guidelines and effective communication as they embark on their travel journeys.
What do business travellers need?
So, firstly the business travellers should be informed with additional travel details and the entry and quarantine rules of the particular country they are travelling to. At times, there are confusions, whether the destination country demands quarantine for travellers coming from the departure country. So, everything should be made crystal clear.
The travellers should be provided with additional information regarding the extra precautions that airlines, cabs and hotels are taking in these riskier times of the third wave of COVID-19. It is the duty of these parties to ensure that utmost precautions are taken during the commute and stay of the travellers.

Additional information regarding emergency resources and contact information for medical services should be provided to the travellers. Also, several business travellers would require information about their company’s trip approval process. Lastly, for the exchange of important information, a mobile-first communication method should be employed.
