Webinar: The Traveler Value Index 

Date: July 28

Time:

Duration: 60 minutes  

How people think about and plan travel has changed in the last 18 months. The pandemic will have a lasting impact on travelers’ preferences and behaviors.

To keep a pulse on what people are thinking, we commissioned a new study of 8,000 global travelers. Whether you are in the vacation rental and hotel industry or air, car, and cruise, insights from this research will help you better understand your customers.

What we’ll cover:

  • The impact of vaccines on the travel industry
  • A ranking of traveler values and how they shift by travel segment (transportation, vacation rentals, and conventional lodging), geography, and age group
  • The rise in values-based travel decisions, including traveler preferences for sustainability and inclusivity
  • How to adapt to these preferences and capture post-pandemic demand
