US Domestic Travel Trends 2022 - Things to do and places to visit in the US.

The World Tourism Organization reports that tourism will have its worst year ever in 2020 as a result of the worldwide shutdown and a slew of travel restrictions. However, with several new international borders set to open in 2022, tourism is once again on the rise.

Travel bookings have been on the rise recently, but this year's vacations look very different from last year's. As the coronavirus evolves—including the rapidly spreading Omicron variant—requirements and limits change, and a new normal takes shape, the travel landscape—from transportation to lodgings to activities—continues to adapt.

Zicasso, an online luxury travel recommendation firm based in Mountain View, California, released a trends analysis that found that tourists are spending more money on trips, staying in one place longer, and seeking out more local experiences than they were before the epidemic.

This year's travel trends, according to luxury-tourism specialists we spoke with, are expected to gain traction and take center stage as the year progresses. 

Allianz Partners has projected that travel from the United States to Europe might increase by as much as 600 percent this year. Despite the fact that this uptick has not yet reached pre-pandemic levels, it does indicate that the road to recovery is becoming less bumpy.

The average time spent going to Europe by Americans is seven days, with 11% staying an additional eight days.

US Domestic Travel

On the domestic front, 2022's US domestic travel is likely to be strong as indicated by the rising trend for "places to go in US" related searches in Google search engine. Vacations near the water and national parks are the most popular summer vacation destinations.

Tourism Economics and the Travel Recovery Insights Dashboard collaborated to produce more than 20 data sources for the dashboard. 

When it comes to tracking industry performance and travel volumes and recovery indicators such as air and lodging forecasts and DMO website traffic as well as trends in conventions and groups, expenditure on travel as well as traveler sentiment, the dashboard is by far the most comprehensive source of high-frequency intelligence on the United States travel industry.

  • Six out of ten Americans expect to take at least one vacation this summer. 
  • Spending on travel ($95 billion) was 5% below 2019 levels in March 2022, an improvement from January's relapse to-12% and nearly back at December's epidemic top of "just"-4%.
  • More than two-thirds (63%) of Americans who plan to travel in the next six months think that higher gas prices will influence their plans.
  • Despite rising gas prices, 35% of those planning vacations plan to travel more this summer than they did last year.
  • 8/10 travel managers indicate a change in corporate business travel policy, including fewer business travel, increased trip permission processes, and additional levels of review for those who go to the firm.
  • Despite an increase from previous months, international arrivals remained 52 percent lower than they were in March of this year.

The Pandemic has ended for the time being in the United States of America. Theme parks, dining out, and hotel reservations are all on the rise, according to travel and event planners.

A pandemic-era study found that Americans spent more money on domestic vacations than they did on international ones, with an average of 5.5 leisure excursions per person over the last two years, headed by the generation known as Generation Y, who took 6.3 trips. 

When it comes to future vacations, city breaks are the most popular choice for Americans, while activities and adventure are more popular elsewhere.

People searching for a relaxing vacation were looking for comfortable, well-equipped accommodations, while those with children were more interested in having fun and educational activities available on-site. 

Room amenities accounted for the majority of bookings in the corporate category.

According to Petrie, "Consumers are looking forward to discovery and adventure as the summer approaches, and while we are seeing a rise in overseas intent, the same cannot be said for international business, where just 19 percent of travelers had either booked or were highly likely to."

Twenty-five percent of business travelers had either booked or were about to book domestic travel.

Booking business travel has been somewhat slow as a result of corporate market uncertainty rather than post-pandemic unwillingness to travel. 

Many conferences are still being hosted online, despite the fact that budgets are still being squeezed. Large events are slowly returning, but there is likely to be a permanent transition to platforms like Zoom for certain smaller meetings where international travel is not warranted.

There was a price war between hotel websites and online travel agencies, with 28% of guests believing that the hotels' own websites gave the best rates, while 31% said that the online travel agencies offered the best rates. 

54 percent of business travelers and 48 percent of leisure tourists prefer to book through the official websites of the hotels they want to stay at. 

A loyalty program was used by 59% of respondents and 83% of business travelers, which is not surprising given that the United States is the world's most heavily branded market.

Hilton Hotels & Resorts was the second-highest-ranking brand in the country, behind only Marriott.

With the strong demand for US domestic travel, small businesses in the US in the travel and hospitality industry can consider packaging their services to tailor to consumers' preference for unique experiences when they look for things to do in the US.
