Abstract

Even negative events can have a positive effect. Forms of behavior and ways of working "learned" during the Covid period continue to live in symbiosis with society after the pandemic passes, together with its negative and positive effects. Digitization processes accelerated significantly in connection with the epidemic, forcing companies to reconsider their production or service processes at the given levels. A significant number of materials deal with the analysis of post-Covid symptoms, mainly its impact on the economy and society.

The present work examines the effect of this phenomenon on the tourism sector, i.e. the win-win game of telework and seasonality adjustment. In this connection, the infrastructure itself can be examined as an installation factor; and a tourist destination with strong seasonality can be investigated, as well as their correlation. It may be a question of what degree of revaluation of an installation factor can bring about the other factors, and what effect it can have on tourism.
