4. Travel & Luxury
Click below to see how consumers are approaching travel and luxury purchase decisions.
Consumers generally opt for mid-range hotels (3 stars) and 60% choose economy seating on flights. Home rentals, however, appeal to a wide range of high and low-spending consumers.
35% of Gen Z are interested in home rentals like Airbnb or VRBO compared to 24% of Boomers.
Spending power is not an indicator of vacation choice. Those who “easily meet monthly expenses” were just as likely (27%) to opt for a home rental as those who find it a challenge (25%). Those with more spending power are more likely to choose a 4 or 5 star hotel (55%), however.
