AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Vrbo® released its 2022 Trend Report detailing how U.S. families are poised to vacation in the coming year, revealing interesting changes in how families plan and think about time away together.
2022 Vrbo Trend Report reveals coming vacation trends: Book early, stay longer, and let kids call the shots
Vrbo's annual report is based on an analysis of its own travel demand data*, plus a consumer survey of U.S. families**. This year's trend report highlights how pandemic-era travel behaviors are having longer-term effects, causing families to book vacation rentals further in advance and reevaluate their work-life balance. Additionally, the report unveils a growing appreciation for spending quality time away with family and how kids - and even pets - are having a greater influence on travel planning and decision-making.
"The past 18 months have been a roller-coaster ride, and this year's trend report indicates that several travel habits we developed are going to stick around in 2022," said Alison Kwong, Vrbo spokesperson. "Though families have adjusted when and how they plan their vacations, it's abundantly clear that they are prioritizing spending time away together. They are putting extra effort into maximizing their time off by unplugging and making these trips special for the whole family."
Key findings from the 2022 Vrbo Trend Report include:
