Tourism and Events Queensland (TEQ) has relaunched its online platform to make planning a trip more intuitive. With leisure travel severely impacted by COVID-19, travel brands are keeping people intrigued and excited with immersive planning experiences.

In the post-pandemic context, people are more comfortable travelling domestically than internationally. Adapting to this shift, Airbnb is launching 'Go Near', an initiative that involves partnering with local governments and tourism agencies to encourage people to adventure close to home.

With greening our routines top-of-mind, reducing the environmental impact of our transport options is an important consideration for many. As price and infrastructure make scaling back on air travel difficult, how can brands and industries lend a helping hand to the eco-keen?

From messages of support to those that aim to entertain, how can brands deepen their relationships with people during a pandemic? Canvas8 spoke to Tom Doctoroff, author of Twitter Is Not a Strategy, to understand the role brand behaviour plays during a time of uncertainty and crisis.
