Rabiat - Bye, bye Ballermann?

The narrow streets of Venice crammed with tourists, mega parties in Ischgl, packed beaches at Ballermann - until 2020, this was the ugly side of travel in many places: Overtourism, overtourism. Almost no one in the world travels as much as the Germans. For many, travel is a kind of basic right. Then came Corona: lockdown and travel warnings. The travel industry is paralyzed. Airlines, hotels and restaurants are on the verge of bankruptcy. Even now, a year after the first lockdown, there is no return of travel in sight.
Y-Kollektiv reporter Anne Thiele accompanies travelers and people who live off tourism in the RABIAT report "Bye, bye Ballermann?" for over a year, before, during and after Corona. Who has gained from the crisis and who has lost?
What used to be backpacking is now camping. Is the trend moving from long-distance travel to home-based vacations in RVs? What will become of destinations like Mallorca, which is completely dependent on tourism? And how are long-distance destinations like Tulum in Mexico, which were already overcrowded before the pandemic, changing into a party stronghold during the pandemic - because Mexico has never closed its borders to tourists.
Reporter Anne takes stock after one year in spring 2021: Is overtourism becoming a problem again? What do the new concepts that are supposed to make travel better look like? And are they suitable for the masses?
