Financial pressures are set to reshape European travel plans... What does this mean?🤔 The European Travel Commission reports that 68% of Europeans are set to travel between October 2023 and March 2024, a 2% decrease from last year. Perhaps rising costs and financial pressures have led many travellers to adopt money-saving strategies, such as off-season travel and early bookings. 📈 Despite these challenges, 71% of Europeans intend to maintain or increase their travel budgets. For SMEs in the travel industry, these trends highlight the importance of offering affordable and flexible options. Emphasising off-season deals, budget-friendly accommodations, and promotions can attract cost-conscious travellers. Enhancing customer experience with value-added services like personalised itineraries and local discounts can boost loyalty and repeat business. 💵 The travel industry's resilience, as evidenced by sustained travel intentions, bodes well for economic recovery and growth, presenting opportunities for SMEs to capitalize on shifting consumer preferences. Either way, I will still be escaping to the sun as soon as possible😁☀️ #travel #smes #economy #businessintelligence #future
