The Travel Health Index is a proprietary tool produced by Skift Research to track the travel industry’s performance using 84 travel indicators with data from 22 partners. The global index currently stands at 101, up 2 percentage points from the previous month.
At its lowest point, the index hit 20 in April 2020 – that meant travel performance had dropped to 20% of levels in April 2019. The travel rebound has come a long way since then.
