2023 Travel Outlook
2023 is shaping up to be a great year for travel.
As we enter 2023, marketers are getting mixed messages on the economy. On one hand, reports about persistent inflation and rising interest rates are scary. On the other hand, the labor market is tighter than it’s ever been, and high-profile tech layoffs don’t seem to affect any other sector.
The U.S. Travel foundation predicts an increase in spending compared to 2022, and even when compared to levels in 2019. On average, people are booking trips farther in advance than in 2019, with half of respondents already planning trips for summer.
That’s why our 2023 Outlook will cover a broader range of topics – to help prepare you to make 2023 and beyond successful for your organization.
What’s inside:
• Inflation Travel Impact
• Better Data = Better Marketing
• The Rise of Value-Based Marketing
• 2023 Tech Trends – AI, GA4 and more
