question: Purpose: To determine the influence of COVID-19 and the first 2020 lockdown on Flemish people's initial travel behaviour perceptions, a hypothetical scenario was posed to respondents where they were asked to keep in mind a situation where they might be able to travel again during the summer of 2020 (July/August). This research had two main aims: (i) the pre-lockdown travel plans for summer 2020 were determined;(ii) the extent to which respondents would adapt their travel behaviour if they were hypothetically allowed to travel again by summer 2020.
