Travel is calling. Whether it be a sunny escape or a cultural experience, Australians are ready to broaden their horizons after enduring two years of pandemic-caused lockdowns.
For some that means an interstate jaunt to visit relatives, while for others it means a bucket-list tick overseas. Three out of four Australians are planning to travel or take a holiday in the next 12 months with 44 per cent saying they were going interstate and a further 44 per cent reporting they would stay within their state borders.
The results of a survey of 1653 Australians by research firm Pureprofile also show people are more hesitant to travel overseas than within the country.
