你Staycation了吗？“家中度假”正风靡全球

2020年10月，香港航空推出“飞悦香港”观赏日落航班。这趟航班下午4：30由香港国际机场起飞，在距离香港200海里内的上空飞行。你可能会觉得，愿意花钱坐90分钟飞机只为看个日落的人大概是疯了。

90分钟环港游机票热卖

结果，这头100张“哪也不能去”的机票在半小时内就卖光了。香港快运也推出了约为1.5小时的本地起降的环港游行程。被憋坏了的香港人可以在飞机上观看香港美景，缓解不能旅游之苦。

别以为只有在疫情严重的地方人们才会做出这么疯狂的事。在中国，携程旅游通过对比元旦假期用户关键词搜索数据发现，“宅酒店”成了主流度假方式，对于不喜欢团队游、不喜欢打卡景点的年青一代来说，在元旦小长假中，年轻人更青睐在酒店中睡到自然醒，或是看电视、玩手机，将父母口中“你出来玩就是在酒店睡觉”的经典话术变为现实。

不少酒店推Staycation套餐吸引本地客户

所谓“staycation”，是把“stay”（停留）和“vacation”（假期）结合起来，顾名思义就是“宅家度假”，指个人或家庭在家附近的场所参与短期的休闲活动。它还有一个同义词holistay，结合了“holiday”(假期)和“stay”（停留）。

这种风潮下，最高兴的可能是一度或仍然处在破产阴影下的全球酒店业了。

携程数据显示，今年元旦假期，全国多地一房难求。三星级酒店价格同比增长达23%；四星级酒店价格同比增长达21%；五星级酒店价格同比增长17%。“90后”与“00后”组成的年青一代已经成为今年元旦假期的出游绝对主力。

在香港，不少酒店推出staycation套餐，吸引本地客户来酒店住宿消费。一些酒店的多个房间玻璃窗都贴满英文字句，细看才知道是酒店为staycation的住客准备的庆祝气球。酒店玻璃窗上用气球拼出“生日快乐”“永远爱你”“做个好医生”“永远的好朋友”等字样，可见酒店已经从接待旅客转型成了本地客户开庆祝派对的地方。

疫情封城的阴影下，数以百万计的英国人也加入了staycation的潮流中。Staycation如此来势汹汹，以至于在诸多限制下，2020年的短期住宿预订仍比2019年增长了33%。

　　Vacation？ Staycation！ Holiday？ Holistay！

On October 20，　　Hong Kong Airlines to operate Embrace “Home” Kong flight to watch the sunset flight. The flight departs from Hong Kong International Airport at 4： 30 p. m. and is within 200 nautical miles of Hong Kong. You might think that someone willing to pay for a 90-minute flight just to watch a sunset is crazy.

However， the first 100 “flight to nowhere” tickets sold out in 30 minutes. Hong Kong Express also launched a local-round-trip flight， which enables passengers to overlook the city and alleviate the thirst for travel.

Don’t think that only people trapped by the coronavirus will pay for such an “insane” trip. In China， Ctrip analyzed the searches before and during New Year’s holiday and found that “staycation” at hotel is becoming a mainstream. Most of the young people dislike package tour and traditional scenic spots， staycation therefore rises. During the 3-day holiday， they tended to sleep until wake up naturally at the hotel， spending days on TV and mobile phones. Parents used to complain their children “travel to sleep at the hotel”， which totally comes true right now.

Staycation is prevailing over the world.？Staycation？is a？portmanteau？of “stay” and “vacation”， referring to a period in which an individual or family stays home and participates in leisure activities within？day trip？distance of their home and does not require overnight accommodation. It is also named “holistay”， a portmanteau of “holiday” and “stay”.

The hospitality industry around the world， once or still on the edge of bankruptcy， is expected to benefit most from the growing popularity of staycation.

According to the analysis， the hotels are full in many places. The booking price of three-star hotel increased by 23% from last year， the number for four-star hotel and five-star hotel is 21% and 17% respectively. Post-90s and Post-00s made up the majority of staycationers.

In HongKong， where the travel industry has been greatly impacted， many hotels launch “staycation set” to attract local customers accordingly. People can see English words from the outside through windows of some hotels： “HAPPY BIRTHDAY”， “LOVE YOU FOREVER”， “BE A GOOD DOCTOR”， “BEST FRD FOREVER”…… Hotels has become places for locals to host parties instead of its original use.

Cast by the shadow of COVID-19 lock-down， millions of Brits has been joining the staycation trend， so much so that a 33% increase is reported in bookings compared to 2019 – despite restrictions.
