El año 2020 ha sido muy duro para la industria turística. Todas las métricas que se han ido conociendo al cierre de año muestran que el impacto de la pandemia sobre el sector ha sido devastador.

Además, las oleadas de COVID-19 vividas a finales del 2020 y al inicio de 2021, junto a las distintas medidas de restricción a la movilidad y la actividad, han mantenido los flujos turísticos en mínimos, extendiendo así las pérdidas sufridas por el sector.
