Online Travel Market Highlights:

The global online travel market benefits primarily from the soaring customer demand in emerging and developed nations for international tours. The market is also lucratively shaped by the increasing trend of travel service sellers that strive to reach the customers directly. This prompts several travel agencies to branch out in other areas, which could elevate the growth trajectory of the online travel market in subsequent years.

Social media platforms have emerged as a prominent marketing opportunity for online travel companies in recent years. Given the large-scale use of social media by consumers, their preferences and interests are easily tracked which helps travel companies to target those that are likely to opt for travel experiences and who can also afford travel packages. These factors offer online travel companies a highly comprehensive insight into customer wants and behavior.

Another major trend making its way into the Online TravelMarketis the rising preference among travel companies to provide various other services including food and shopping experiences. With the increasing focus of primary suppliers like railway and airlines authorities on reaching out directly to customers, online travel companies are expected to expand in other areas to engage customers. Apart from this, growing use of apps, as well as online shopping portals by key suppliers of transportation options, could elevate the market position in the near future. Citing a reference, in April 2019, a renowned online travel agency in Southeast Asia named Traveloka started providing entry to spas, hotels, and movie theaters. This move was mirrored by numerous companies around the world, depicting the popularity of such aspects in the transportation sector.
