This paper aims to identify the effects and solution of the new normal’s existence in Indonesia’s tourism industry. The qualitative method is used in this research using the literature studies from the secondary data sets. The results show that the new normal turns out to bring a positive side in the tourism industry because of the innovations and solutions which appear from a new way of thinking and regulation. Therefore, the influences of the new normal, especially in Indonesia will be explained in more detail in this research.
