Forget checking into a hotel for a long weekend or a week. In the wake of COVID-19, travellers around the world are booking stays that last a month or even longer.

According to hoteliers globally, it's a pattern that started this summer when their properties reopened after being shuttered for several months. This trend appears to be continuing through the fall everywhere from Aspen and Ontario to all over Mexico and in Italy.

Aldo Melpignano, the owner of Borgo Egnazia, a 250-acre resort in Puglia, Italy, reports the same elevated numbers. "Normally, we have one or two guests staying with us that long, but this year, it's been a flood," he says. "We have had such a fantastic time at a place that is very COVID friendly, and Rohan and I have been able to keep working throughout," says Morelli. "Our daughter has been beyond entertained, and when we have breaks, we water ski, golf, workout and indulge in great food and wine."

"It's a win for them because it creates a multi-week revenue stream and a win for travelers who get a price break and can have a self-contained, safe getaway." At Eden Roc Cap Cana, in the Dominican Republic, an extended stay package geared to families includes accommodations in a two-bedroom beachfront suite, all meals , an office setup with a desk, printer and office supplies and unlimited kids activities such as cooking classes, Spanish and piano lessons, bike tours and kayaking.

Case of Ontario man who ignored COVID-19 quarantine order shows challenges of crucial contact tracingThe case underscores just how challenging contact tracing can be. And, according to a new study, the problem is not only recalcitrant citizens There must be a way to employ cell phones in order to provide continual citizen monitoring. Why hasn't the government stepped up and instituted this solution? People can not be allowed to simply wander around freely in the post-COVID world. The US is deploying Covid testing station in airports. Why not in Canada. Yep all of that for a variation of the flu with a 0.00023 mortality rate in Canada and 80% of that in old age homes. Thanks for telling us to give up our rights and give in to government tracking, I actually expected better from you. Jokes on me.
