"With the unlocking of cities, December 2020 emerged as the month that's witnessing the most demand around the holiday season," it said. According to the index, while 2020 started on a happy note, with January 2020 (pre-covid) being the most traveled month, April 2020 witnessed most cancellations across the country owing to the government's precautionary lockdown.

Across India, the tourist hotspot of Goa emerged as the most booked beach destination, followed by Kochi, Vizag, and Puducherry. The report further said that since India began unlocking, the northern cities of Jaipur, Udaipur, and Agra are the most loved heritage cities for Indians.
