Now, when users search for hotels or vacation rental properties through Google Travel, each listing comes with information about the Covid safety precautions the establishment has taken to ensure their guests’ safety. These measures may include things like vigorous cleaning procedures or contact-free check-in. Google partners with these hotel chains and vacation rental companies to give travelers the most up to date information on specific steps they’re taking to reduce risk of infection. Hotel owners can even give this information directly by using a tool in Google My Business that allows them to enter their Covid procedures right into their company’s profile. This is great news for travelers and their loved ones!

Travel insurance providers have made some important changes, too.  Many trip insurance and travel medical coverage plans now offer Covid protections.
