A new study by YouGov, a UK-based research firm, has revealed that UAE residents have the highest desire to travel across the world after the pandemic. The report stated that UAE residents have a “greater appreciation,” as it ranked at the top among 18 countries.
According to the survey, one in 5 UAE residents traveled with a bigger group and had long holidays during the last 12 months. Many residents are also planning to relocate to another country for jobs within the next year.
The report also predicted a dip in remote work during vacations and an increase in taking a holiday during a business trip in the future. 31% of UAE residents regarded safety as the top priority during their journey, while 27% were searching for local attractions.
