In which case I think you should try the suggestion from @JohanElzenga and try resetting preferences.

Are you sure you have classic installed and no Lightroom Desktop? The latter will not show a destination, and will iport everything to a cloud library.

Jao, that same thought crossed my mind, but the OP says they have the "File Handling" and "Apply during Import" panels, which makes it definitely LrC.

You will not see the Destination panel if your selected import type is "Add", so check that first.

If you have any of the Copy or Move options selected and Destination is still not showing, another possibility is that the panel has been hidden. In which case, right-click on any of the other section headers (e.g. File Handling) that are showing in the right-hand panel, then click on Destination (and any other missing section) to make it visible again.

Thank you all, I have move set at the top of the screen and right-clicked on the other headers and nothing appears it just closes that header

Right-click in an empty part of the header, not on the header name.

The Destination panel is automatically hidden whenever your import type is set to Add (at top of screen) since in that event, there is no destination - the files are imported remaining wherever they currently are.

Otherwise if set to Move / Copy / Copy as DNG: if the Destination is then still not showing, you can right-click (Cmd+click) on one of the panel headers which are showing, and put a checkmark back next to "Destination", or else click "Show All".

correction, it seems to be Ctrl+click - or if on a trackpad, apparently a two-finger click will do it
