Post-pandemic Incentive Travel Survey: Taiwan voted as top post-pandemic travel destination

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic,the majority of companies around the world were forced to cancel or delay their incentive travel plans in 2021. This year,MEET TAIWAN specifically surveyed business travelers from eight countries in Asia,Europe and the United States regarding their intentions for incentive travel. The results showed that destination safety and epidemic prevention policies were their top considerations when selecting an incentive travel destination. Among the surveyed persons,over 60% ranked Taiwan as their top choice for an incentive travel destination in Asia. This clearly represents the international recognition of Taiwan's epidemic prevention performance,indicating greater potential for attracting overseas incentive travel groups to visit Taiwan after the pandemic.
