We've heard a lot about this build-up of travel demand called "Revenge Travel" and how there will be a big boom when things open up and people feel safe. The true question is, will hotels & restaurants have the staff and proper preparations to serve this wild rush? Will, the industry on a global scale, see when this will happen, or will we wake up to our guests waiting outside our doors hungry for good service and experiences?

This week on Good Morning Hospitality, we discuss how the road to recovery has possibly shifted for the hospitality industry. The vaccine is not rolling out as fast or efficient as expected.
