“…Rahman et al, (2021) study added that due to the growth of the Covid19 outbreak, visitors' perceptions of travel risk and destination trust in hygiene and safety have a significant impact on their travel decisions. Choe and Kim (2021) examined the impact of perceived risk and destination perceptions on the intention to visit an Olympic destination. Their study demonstrated that the tourists' perceived risk alone is rarely the only cause for hesitation to travel.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic has undoubtedly a significant influence on the tourism industry due to the perceived risk of travelers that cause them to change their travel decision. The study proposed a conceptual framework to identify the impact of the risk perceptions of the residents of Alexandria on the intention to travel to tourism destinations during the pandemic. The study examined four risk types; financial risk, psychological risk, health risk, and travel risk. The proposed framework also investigated the mediating role of destination trust in the relationship between the four types of risk and intention to travel. An online questionnaire was conducted on potential leisure travelers, and a structural equation modeling was used to test the relationships between hypotheses. The results showed a significant relationship only between psychological, health and travel risk and the intention to travel. The results also proved that only travel risk has no impact on travel intention in the presence of destination trust during the pandemic. The unique contribution of the study is investigating the effect of trust on the relationship between perceived risk and travel intention. Useful practical implications are provided by the study to help Destination Management Organizations (DMOs) to develop strategies to decrease the risk perceptions and encourage travelers to revisit tourism destinations.

“…In general, tourists make decisions based on perceptions and not facts (Carballo, León, and Carballo, 2017). Perception of risk is confirmed to have a significant effect on visiting decisions and tourist behavior (Karl et al, 2020;Choe and Kim, 2021). In another study, Liew (2022) also confirms that during the Covid-19 pandemic, there is a decline in interest in online hotel reservations, airline tickets, and company tourism package offers.…”

Tourist behavior has changed a lot because of the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aims to determine the intention of Muslim tourists to visit after Covid-19 pandemic with considerations of halal tourism literacy and perception of Covid-19 and the integration of the Motivation Opportunity Ability (MOA) concept framework. This research has a significant contribution to the halal tourism literature to predict the behavior of Muslim tourists by considering health and safety issues after the Covid-19 pandemic. Data was collected through an online survey with 270 respondents. The data obtained were then analyzed using CFA-SEM on the Smart-PLS 3.2.9 software. The data processing results showed that halal tourism literacy, opportunity, perception of Covid-19, and motivation had direct-significant effects on the intention to visit. Likewise, the indirect effects of tourism information search on the intention to visit could be mediated by halal tourism literacy. However, tourism information search has no significant direct effect on the intention to visit. In addition, the indirect effect of opportunity and perception of Covid-19 on the intention to visit could not be mediated by motivation.

“…In the era of COVID-19, since many regions have precaution policies that have restrictions to travel, people’s normal travel preference is limited [ 2 ]. Furthermore, risk perception significantly influences tourists’ decision making in tourism choice [ 27 ]. Thus, the prospect theory is appropriate with the condition of COVID-19, in which extreme uncertainty generates fear [ 28 ].…”

This study introduces a new travel pattern “pandemic-restricted travel” that exists from COVID-19 based on prospect theory. The purpose of this study is to incorporate the motivation to travel and constraint to normal travel to predict tourists’ intention to continue visiting other alternative destinations due to COVID-19 restrictions. This study first generated the items of motivation to travel and constraints to normal travel from a focus group interview with 15 travel industry professionals in December 2020 in Zhuhai. Then, an online survey collected data from 416 respondents in the Greater Bay Area of China from January to February 2021. The results of exploratory factor analysis using SPSS identified two factors of motivation to travel (leisure and exploration) and two factors of favourable constraints to normal travel (policy restriction and perceived risk). The results of partial least squares–structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) indicated that these four factors positively influence satisfaction but only leisure and exploration factors positively influence the intention of continuous pandemic-restricted travel. Among the four factors, leisure has the strongest impact on both satisfaction and intention of continue travelling. The results also revealed that satisfaction fully mediates the effects of two constraint factors and partially mediates the effects of two motivation factors on the intention of continuous pandemic-restricted travel. Implications for researchers and governments for pandemic-restricted travel during and in the post-COVID-19 era are then discussed.
