Meta Description: As we begin to anticipate returning back to normal life, we must prepare for the transition of when Covid will end so the hospitality industry can thrive.

H2: Even though 2021 is still relatively young, many people are beginning to feel optimistic about the future and looking forward to when Covid will end. Many Covid metrics are looking good right now, and with vaccines becoming more readily available, people are hopeful we are approaching a return to normal life. Few industries were hit as hard by the pandemic as hospitality. Last year travel was restricted, flights were non-existent, restaurant capacity was minimal, tourist destinations and hotel rentals suffered greatly. Everyone in the hospitality industry is looking forward to when Covid will end, but before that day comes, preparation needs to be made for when the transition to normal begins.

​

H2: First of all, it’s important to remember that we are not out of the woods yet, Covid will end one day, but we can’t rush into reopening. Many people still need to be vaccinated, many restrictions have yet to be removed, and jumping the gun on reopening will not help anyone. To be successful as we transition back to normal, we need to remember that the transition will most likely be slow.

​

H2: Since the reopening process will likely be slow, the hospitality industry should take advantage of this slow opening. Much of the hospitality industry was furloughed last year, and most restaurants were operating at a fraction of their usual capacity. Use this time to prepare for when Covid will end. Prepare for larger crowds, busier nights, and to begin to hire more people. Start looking at your inventory orders from 2019 to get an idea of how much food you will need to have available as more people start coming to your restaurants.

​

H2: The customer is always right. That must be kept in mind when business picks up and when Covid will end. While hospitality will be excited for things to be opening up, your customers might be at various levels of transitioning back to normal life. Be sure to keep your customer’s comfort and safety in mind throughout the reopening process. It would be a good idea for restaurants to maintain their outdoor dining for the near future, and long after the pandemic, sanitizing frequently touched surfaces should be kept in practice. Some customers will want to wear masks after masking is no longer recommended; some will be eager to get rid of their masks. Take this time to figure out what your policy will be, and how you can accommodate as many people as possible while keeping everyone as safe as possible.

​

H2: Don’t forget to celebrate! As life becomes more normal, this is a great occasion; celebrate each milestone we reach with optimism. Let your customers know about that wonderful service you can offer them again; things will get better over time, we must all be responsible as we reopen, but we must celebrate each milestone as we go! When Covid ends, hospitality will be ready.
