This is possible. But its also possible that the pandemic is altering people's behaviors in ways that will persist after the pandemic is over.

Most definitely a lot of people will start spending their money on travelling again, so I think there will be a drop from what is going on now. But probably there will also be some people who have gotten a lot more "into" the hobby than they were before and will maintain that interest after, so I think the market will likely remain bigger coming out of the pandemic than it was going in, even if it prices go down a bit.
