As Italy seeks to stimulate the economy in the wake of the coronavirus crisis, the Italian government is offering to help lower-income residents take a holiday this year. Part of the ambitious 'Relaunch Decree' unveiled on Wednesday night, the 'holiday bonus' could be worth up to €500 to families who choose to travel in Italy.
It aims to boost Italy's tourism sector, which accounts for 15 percent of the country's jobs and has taken a massive hit from travel restrictions imposed by Italy and other countries during the coronavirus pandemic.
