This study investigates public disposition and attitudes in various parts of the world towards staycations, based on analysis of social media data extracted from the Twitter platform for the period from March 2020 to March 2021. The findings reveal regional trends and variations amongst holiday-makers across the UK/Ireland, USA/Canada, and New Zealand/ Australia during the COVID-19 pandemic. The analytical procedure involved sentiment and content analysis, using the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modelling technique to explore similarities and differences between different regions of the world.
