Jetsetting is a growing travel trend for 2024 due to the power of social media. Social media sets off a wave of travellers going to great lengths to witness natural phenomena. Whether it’s looking toward dark skies to stargaze see the Northern Lights or heading to the beach to watch sea turtles hatch, travellers want a front-row seat to breathtaking natural wonders.
Prioritise Mental Health
There seems to be an interest in beach and mountain destinations known for leisure and relaxation. This trend plays a huge part in self-care and improves their mental health and overall well-being. Travel is now believed to reduce stress and anxiety.
All Inclusive
All-inclusive resorts sometimes get a bad reputation, but the game has changed—modern all-inclusive is getting a stunning upgrade, and Gen Z is all in. Did you know that #allinclusive has been trending on TikTok? They are living in the inclusive Era due to minimal stress from the ease of booking and because it gives them a feeling of luxury.
Get the Goods Retreats
The next generation is less bothered about keepsakes like keyrings and fridge magnets from the gift shop. Travellers are now going the distance in search of treasures they can’t get at home and can’t go home without. On social media platforms, everything from a chocolate bar from Dubai, skincare products from Korea, fast food from America, and butter from France have gone viral. Gen Z can’t wait to get their hands on these speciality goods.
Sports Centered Travel
A lot of sports-centred travel is occurring at this current time. There are so many exciting sporting events that draw travellers such as big-ticket events like the Grand Prix, US Open, and Olympics in Paris. Not to mention they bring in lots of money for travel agents and airlines.
Cruising
Going on a cruise has sort of had a reputation for catering to the older generation, but not so much anymore. For the past few years, travellers have now seen that it’s such an accessible way to travel. Especially for those with any mobility and cognitive limitations, or for multi-generational travel where there are lots of budgets and opinions to accommodate. There is something for everyone from big ships to mid-size luxury to small expedition-style ships these days.
