Introducing @Expedia Group’s Unpack ’25: the data-driven predictions of where people will go and what they will do in 2025. #UnpackTravelTrends
Here’s a snapshot of the trends from Expedia, Hotels.com and Vrbo:
🌍Detour Destinations: Travelers are not only visiting the tried-and-true destinations – they’re also taking detours to experience new places.
🍫 Goods Getaways: Travelers are going the distance in search of treasures (and treats) they can’t get at home and can’t go home without.
🏨 All-Inclusive Era: Today’s all-inclusive resorts are getting a major glow up and Gen Z is here for it.
🍽️ Hotel Restaurant Renaissance: When booking hotels, travelers are not just making room reservations - they’re making dinner reservations, too.
🏡 JOMO Travel: We often experience FOMO when seeing others go on action-packed vacations, but in 2025, travelers will embrace JOMO, the joy of missing out.
✨ The Phenomena-List: Recent eclipses sold out rural, private vacation homes in their path. That set off a wave of travelers going to great lengths to witness natural phenomena.
📺 2025 Set-Jetting Forecast: From bingeworthy streaming shows to reality TV, travelers keep turning to the screen for trip inspiration.
👆🏽One-Click Trips: Go from looking at your favorite influencer’s trips, to booking it. Expedia recently launched travel industry-first shoppable storefronts curated by social media creators.
