Expedia lets influencers cash in
Expedia Group has introduced Travel Shops, a way for influencers and other content creators to earn commissions when travelers book their recommended hotels.
Travel Trends 2024: Breaking Boundaries
- Passengers traveling: An all-time high of about 15.9 million Americans traveled internationally in Q1 2024 while Japan welcomed over 3 million passenger arrivals in March 2024
- Consumer spending: As of March 2024, nine out of the last 10 record-setting spending days in the global cruise and airline industry were in 2024
- Leisure for longer: Tourists spend more time on vacation, by about one extra day relative to pre-COVID trends, particularly for lower-cost destinations
- Traveling for events: Memorable events are driving travel trends, whether it is for concerts or sporting events - look out for a rush of travelers to Munich for the opening game of the European Championship
- Top gainers: Japan, Ireland and Romania experienced the strongest growth in share of spending from tourists relative to last year
Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole region considers local visitor charge
Under the current proposals, a charge of £2.40 would be added to a guest bill per room, per night, equating to roughly £10 over four nights.
