How did COVID-19 change your travel plans in SC last year? We want to know
The second year of the coronavirus pandemic, 2021, brought a renaissance of travel to South Carolina’s coast. Restaurants were packed. Practically everything anyone wanted to do had a line. Last-minute vacations got a whole lot more expensive.
Plenty of people had to cancel, or modify, trips because of COVID-19. Some found out they were infected days before heading out. Others were exposed on their trips. Some even canceled trips because they feared getting COVID as we saw successive surges of the virus in the winter, summer and late fall.
How did your travel plans change in 2021? Did you forever change the way you travel? Do you drive everywhere instead of flying now? Did you retire early to travel more? Or sell your house, buy an RV and decide to live on the road?
We want to hear about it all. Travel isn’t the same as what it used to be, and it’ll never fully return to all of that. (For better or worse, QR code menus will probably never disappear.)
