# What is the Skift Travel Health Index?

The Skift Travel Health Index is a real-time measure of the performance of the travel industry at large, and the core verticals within it. Covid-19 has routed the travel industry, with the impact of the pandemic quantified for 22 countries in the Skift Travel Health Index. The Index provides the travel industry with a powerful tool for strategic planning, of utmost importance as times remain uncertain.

Skift Research launched the Index in May 2020 as the Skift Recovery Index, and have rebranded it at the start of 2022 as the Skift Travel Health Index, to reflect some far-ranging changes: the addition of many more indicators, additional data partners, and most importantly, our continued effort to track the industry health beyond the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.
