With nearly 30% of Americans fully vaccinated, a surplus of unused PTO, and restrictions lifting in many destinations, even some of the most hesitant travelers are about ready to pack their bags. Soon, the days of empty airports will be a distant memory, but our summer vacations may still look different than what we were accustomed to pre-pandemic, and rightfully so.
Expedia Group surveyed 2,200 Americans in partnership with Morning Consult in May 2021 to gauge how many people are prepared to take a well-deserved break from work, explore, and reconnect with loved ones — and whether recent industry news has impacted their plans. Here’s what we found.
1. Summer travel is hot.
2. For the first time in nearly a year, Seniors are traveling more than younger generations.
3. Business travel is starting to make a comeback.
4. Americans are now considering a trip overseas.
5. Travelers are uncertain about vaccine passports at this stage.
