A New “Normal” Will Emerge
1. Travel will become
more of an event / luxury.
2. Annual travel
occasions will merge.
3. Propensity towards
destinations with proximity.
4. Cancellation policies will
come under scrutiny.
5. Major traveler segments remain
be off the table for a while.
(i.e. business, cruize or elderly)
6. Rise of “off the beaten path”,
unique, personalized experiences.
7. Human interactions are
the ultimate X-factor.
8. Destination marketing will
bleed over even more across
the entire consumer funnel.
