Research / IRF Pulse Survey: The Impact of COVID-19 on Incentive Travel in 2022 (Infographic)
by Incentive Research Foundation
Incentive travel is a go! The majority of respondents to IRF’s survey are planning incentive travel programs in 2022, but flexibility is key. As disruptions from COVID variants continue, health & safety protocols and considerations are still major factors in decision-making and travel planning. When it comes program dates and locations, there are high rates of change in response to COVID variants and travel restrictions.
Our panelists examine key findings from our new report 2025 European Attendee Preferences for Incentive Travel. They explore trends in attendee preferences, factors in destination selection, and how incentive travel program design can impact employee motivation.
Our panel discusses the importance of determining the optimal monetary value for incentive rewards. While higher rewards can boost motivation and participation, there is a threshold where additional increases have diminishing returns.
