Evolving traveller expectations, pressures to reduce emissions and a need to preserve popular destinations from over-tourism and climate change are creating untold disruption in the travel industry. The industry cannot continue to grow unchecked and wholesale transformation is required.Future-proofing Travel considers current travel trends in consumer expectations for greener and more experiential travel alongside the demands from local communities and industry-led initiatives to meet government pledges of lower emissions. It explores how business leaders in tourism and hospitality services must adapt their offerings to remain relevant in a competitive environment where sustainability and technology are no longer nice-to-haves. Explore data-driven and holistic solutions for travel industry professionals to transform their businesses to be more purposeful and sustainable with this book. While there is no one pathway to success, Future-proofing Travelshows how travel companies and destinations are currently adapting their practices to be more sustainable while also elevating the traveller experience.
