5️⃣ trends shaping up the hospitality and travel industry today

With business travel clearly back on the map, Phocuswire and Amadeus have combined industry research with market insights to understand what trends are already emerging for this segment, and what implications this has on the hospitality industry. Here is an highlight of the findings.

5️⃣ trends shaping up the hospitality and travel industry today:

✔️ Despite the market uncertainty, it seems clear that we are all eager to hop back on a trip, be it for leisure or for business.

✔️ Business travel is back, with the *bleisure* trend evolving in favour of *workcation*. We've gone from smaller trips, frequently to longer stays infrequently (i.e 61-90 days) 🙌🏽

✔️ Sustainable travel is a priority. We've gone from cost-conscious to becoming eco-conscious.

✔️ Regular communication from the airlines and hoteliers throughout the travel journey is key. This is particularly important as it influences the experience (i.e. update on check-in measures at airport, available/reduced facilities in hotels, cleaning, breakfast arrangements etc)

✔️ Events are back, albeit postponed but still on the map. There’s an increased opportunity for Hoteliers to market their facilities for smaller events I.e. internal team meetings/trainings, remote workers spaces, use of courtyard area etc.
