Abaningi babheka uhambo lwasehlobo njengesidingo

Uma ubucabanga ukuthi ukwehla komnotho kanye nokwesaba ukuwohloka komnotho kungase kuholele kumadili ohambo kuleli hlobo, cabanga futhi.

Isidingo sihlala singesikhathi samaholide, kusho izikhulu zezokuvakasha, nakuba abantu bengakhetha izindawo ezishibhile noma bachithe isikhathi esincane uma befika ogwini lolwandle noma ezintabeni.

“Ezingqondweni zabantu abaningi, ukuhamba akuseyona into ewubukhazikhazi kodwa sekuyinto eyisidingo,” kusho uClay Ingram, okhulumela i-AAA-Alabama. "Umndeni ngamunye uzosebenzisa imali encane, kodwa basazohamba."

Futhi ngenxa yalokhu, izihlalo zezindiza namakamelo ezindaweni zokungcebeleka nasemahhotela nemikhumbi ehamba ngomkhumbi ziyagcwala, uthe, okusho ukuthi umthengi uzobona izaphulelo ezimbalwa.

URoger McWhorter, ongumnikazi we-Elite Travel in Decatur, uthe kunesidingo esikhulu sabantu ababhukha amaholidi emizuzu yokugcina ngoJuni, abasebenzi bakhe basebenza isikhathi esengeziwe.

Ngemuva kwenyanga enkulu yokubhuka kohambo ngoJanuwari, ibhizinisi lehla kakhulu ngoMashi, futhi uMcWhorter uthe unomuzwa wokuthi abathengi bebekhathazekile ngokuwohloka komnotho.

Kodwa ngo-Ephreli, njengoba amanani kaphethiloli enyuka, abantu babenomuzwa wokuthi umnotho awumubi njengoba imibiko yezindaba ibonisiwe futhi ihlela amaholide ehlobo.

Iphethini evamile

Leyo yiphethini evamile yabathengi ngesikhathi sokwehla komnotho, esho. Abantu baqaphela kakhulu futhi bathathe isikhathi eside ukwenza izinqumo.

Uyavumelana nokuhlola kuka-Ingram ukuthi ukuhamba akusaseyona into ewubukhazikhazi futhi uthe le mboni inezikhathi ezimbili kuphela zokwehla kusukela ekuqaleni kwawo-1990. Okunye kwalokhu kwaba umphumela wokuhlasela kwamaphekula ngoSepthemba 11. Enye yayisekupheleni kwesikhathi sikaMongameli Clinton ehhovisi.

Okokugcina uMcWhorter ekhumbula umnotho uhlupheka ngokwanele ukuze athole amadili amahle okuvakasha kwakungaphambi nje kokuba uClinton athathe izintambo ngo-1993.

Uma izwe lingena ekuwohlokeni komnotho okuyiqiniso, okujulile, yebo, izindawo zokungcebeleka nezinkampani zezindiza nezindawo okuyiwa kuzo kuzomele zinikeze amadili, kusho uMcWhorter.

"Kodwa okwamanje, azikho izivumelwano," esho.

Ukufakazela ukuthi abantu basahamba, wanyusa amanani amahhotela edolobheni laseManhattan.

“Akukho okungaphansi kuka-$300,” esho. "Futhi lokho kungenxa yokuthi isidingo sikhulu kunokunikezwa."

Ubufakazi obengeziwe: Ukuthengiswa kwezikebhe ngo-2008 kuphezulu kunonyaka odlule, ngokomagazini ka-April we-Travel Trade.

Ukusebenzisa imali ngokuqapha

Abathengi bachitha ngokuqapha okukhulu, bebhukha eduze nezinsuku zokuhamba nokuhlala izinsuku ezimbalwa olwandle, kubika, kodwa basahamba. Cishe kwabangu-5,000 abasebenzela ezokuvakasha abavotwayo, abangamaphesenti angama-42 babike ukuthi ukubhuka uhambo kwakungaphezulu ngo-2008 kunangonyaka owandulele, kanti amaphesenti angama-40 athi ukubhuka kucishe kufane.

U-Ingram uthe yize ezinye izindawo ezidumile, ikakhulukazi lezo ezidinga ukuhamba amabanga amade, zizohlupheka ezinye, ezinye zizohlomula nje uhambo olude.

“Kuneqembu elilodwa labantu elinendawo eqondile emqondweni,” esho. "Abazoyenza ngokujwayelekile ukwenza izinguquko ezinhlelweni zabo ukuze bahlangabezane nezindleko eziphakeme zikaphethiloli nezinye izinto okungenzeka ukuthi zinyukile."

Ukuze kunxeshezelwe, leli qembu lingase lihlale ehhotela elishibhile, lidle ezindaweni zokudlela ezishibhile, lipakishe okwalo ukudla kwasemini noma limane lihlale usuku olulodwa kancane, kusho u-Ingram.

“Elinye iqembu yilelo elifuna ngempela ukuya ndawana thize, kodwa alinaso lapho liya khona,” esho.

“Lelo qembu lizobheka ukuya endaweni ethile eduzane nasekhaya. Bangase bashayele nje baye olwandle izinsuku ezimbalwa. Bangase baye e-Atlanta.”

Ifuna amadili

Yize zingekho izinkontileka ezisabalele ezitholakala kuleli hlobo, u-Ingram uthe akhona amathuba okonga imali ngoba izindawo zokungcebeleka nezinkampani zezindiza zisangena ezikhathini lapho kukhona amakamelo nezihlalo eziningi kakhulu.

Uphawule ukuthi iSouthwest Airlines isanda kunikeza ithikithi lokuya nokubuya lama- $39 ukusuka eBirmingham ukuya eNew Orleans, kanti iDisney World inikeze abantu abahlala endaweni ukudla kwamahhala.

Ehlobo eledlule, ezinye izindawo zokungcebeleka zasolwandle zaze zanikela ngokuthenga igesi ukuze abantu behlisele khona, wanezela u-Ingram.

"Iningi labahambi lilinde kuze kube umzuzu wokugcina ukuthi linqume, linethemba lokuthola imali enhle," kusho u-Ingram. “Imboni yezokuvakasha iyakwazi lokho futhi izama ukuthola ibhalansi efanelekile yokuthi izonikeza nini amadili athile akhethekile. Abafuni ukukwenza ngokushesha, kodwa bafuna ukuhlala bebhukhwe kakhulu.”

Ukuze wonge imali, wanikeza iseluleko “esinengqondo” futhi wamane wanxusa abahambi ukuba benze umsebenzi wabo wesikole wasekhaya futhi baqhathanise amanani noma basebenzise inkampani yezokuvakasha “eyazi ukuthi ikuphi ukuthengiselana.”
