A few weeks ago I wrote about the industry being in a state (wait.... make that the country) that resembled the metaphor "waiting to exhale". A friend recently said that she felt that the travel industry was in a state of paralysis. I then shared the "waiting to exhale" comment and said that with paralysis you can live forever without moving. Waiting to exhale has quite different consequences.
Where do you think we are?
