The COVID-19 pandemic had a profound impact on travel patterns in Sweden, with domestic tourism surging as the country faced travel restrictions and remaining strong even as its borders reopened. With all travel restrictions abolished in 2022, travel in Sweden continues to show a solid recovery in 2023.
The Swedish airline industry faced seismic challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic, with passenger numbers plummeting, although this has been followed by a moderate recovery in recent years. In 2023, ticket prices surged due to the higher cost of fuel, improving airlines' revenue situation despite lower passenger volumes.
Sweden's lodging category is witnessing a surge in demand post-pandemic as domestic travel thrives and inbound travel rebounds. Key indicators like overnight stays and lodging expenditure exceed pre-pandemic levels due to higher prices.
Despite the ongoing economic uncertainties in 2023, Sweden's travel industry is rebounding. While outbound trip numbers have yet to reach pre-pandemic levels, value sales are recovering, driven by rising outbound and domestic travel.
Travel remains essential to consumers' mental wellbeing, serving as a means to experience new horizons or revisit cherished memories. While the cost of living crisis initially dampened travel due to high inflation and reduced disposable incomes, its impact should subside as the forecast period progresses.
