/ -- The newly released Skyscanner APAC Travel Trends 2020 Report reveals unique insights into Indians' travelling habits. Slow Travel and JOMO (Joy of Missing Out) Travel are top of travellers' priority lists for the year ahead.
Global travel expert Skyscanner has highlighted key changes in the way in which travellers are engaging with the world beyond their borders. Skyscanner is in a unique position to identify such trends, with over 100 million monthly users. Its APAC Travel Trends 2020 Report is based on billions of data points, comparing the October 2018 to September 2019 period with that of October 2017 to September 2018. The results reveal not only the latest global travel insights but also provide a detailed understanding of the booking preferences of individual countries.
The Rise of Slow Travel
Paul Whiteway, Senior Director at Skyscanner APAC, comments:
"2020 is the year to ditch being in a hurry. Travel is no longer about seeing everything on a pre-set list and returning home exhausted. It's about taking the time to stand and stare - to truly connect with the location and its people. Slow Travel has its roots in the Slow Food Movement. Enjoying the experience of connecting with your travel companions, taking unscheduled, leisurely walks and simply resting whenever the mood takes you is what Slow Travel is all about. As a result, 2020's travellers will be returning home refreshed and rejuvenated, their inner balance restored."
