Doubling  of  Interna;onal  Tourism    In  2012  the  number  of  tourists  crossing  interna7onal  borders  reached  over  1bn.  Much  of  the  demand  is  fuelled  by  rising  household  incomes  in  emerging  economies.  Interna7onal  tourist  arrivals  are  expected  to  reach  1.8bn  by  2030  

Page 4: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Growing  Consumer  Awareness    The  dream  of  affordable  travel  is  being  obscured  by  climate  change  and  a  

growing  awareness  among  consumers  that  sustainability  and  responsible  travel  are  set  to  impact  how  we  understand,  embrace  and  manage  our  holiday  plans.    

Page 5: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

BeAer  Employers    Given  that  the  travel  and  tourism  industry  is  a  huge  employer,    the  development  of  and  7ghter  controls  on  employment  rights    

are  likely  to  be  a  significant  factor  in  the  future.    

Page 6: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Community-­‐based  Tourism    Community-­‐based  tourism  is  on  the  rise  with  holidaymakers  eschewing  the  

crowded  beaches  and  all-­‐inclusive  packages  to  enjoy  a  more  authen7c  experience  living  in  the  culture  rather  than  observing  it  from  the  outside.  

Page 7: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Age  Diversified  Workforces    The  demographic  changes  underway  are  fundamentally  altering    virtually  all  aspects  of  life  as  we  know  it.  Workforces  are  becoming    

older  and  more  age  diversified  than  ever  in  history.    

Page 8: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Posi;ve  Local  Impact    Travellers  will  base  buying  decisions  not  only  around  comfortable  beds,  leisure  facili7es  or  cultural  aXrac7ons,  they  will  also  choose  to  stay  in  places  where  staff  are  being  treated  well  and  the  local  economy  is  not  being  exploited.    

Page 9: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Device  is  King,  Consumer  is  Queen  The  device  is  the  focus  of  the  future  –  it  knows  where  you  are,  what  you  

redeem  and  will  likely  consolidate  all  your  informa7on.  Brands  will  need  to  understand  the  ways  devices  will  mediate  their  rela7onships  with  customers.  

Page 10: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Consumer  Power  The  consumer  is  likely  to  gain  the  upper  hand  in  terms  of    

the  power  dynamic  and  principles  such  as  ‘great  customer  service’    will  no  longer  be  a  nego7able.  

Page 11: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Seamless  Cross  Border  Travel    Smart  visas,  indeed,  smart  7cke7ng  in  general  for  mass  transit    

provides  a  tangible  way  forward  in  addressing  some  of  the  barriers    to  the  seamless  growth  of  cross  border  visitor  numbers.    

Page 12: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Borrowing  Stuff  Borrowing  kit  during  their  stay  will  be  an  increasing  demand  for  guests    

who  prefer  to  access  not  bring  their  own  stuff  –  whether  that  be    tablets  and  bicycles  or  gym  kit  and  evening  wear.    

Page 13: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Up-­‐Stream  Insight  Companies  and  networks  have,  and  act  on,  very  early  insight  on  future  ‘intent  to  travel’  and  customise  services  to  suit.  Exis7ng  hotel  brand  rela7onships  are  

by-­‐passed  by  those  more  ‘in  the  know’  about  guest  interests.      

Page 14: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

   

Personalised  Choice  Consumers  enjoy  a  world  where  choice  is  a  commodity  but  where  trusted  opinions  play  a  cri7cal  role  in  guiding  and  assis7ng  decisions  or,  for  some  

individuals,  reducing  choices  on  their  behalf.  

Page 15: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Chinese  Tourists  150  million  outbound  Chinese  tourists  and  a  total  of  500m  more  mobile    Asians  will  need  places  to  stay  in  other  countries  that  align  beXer  with    

their  specific  cultural  norms  and  expecta7ons.    

Page 16: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

   

Maximising  Moments  Individuals  seek  to  maximise  the  benefits  of  moments  available  to  them  -­‐    

whether  efficiency,  rest,  enjoyment  or  otherwise  -­‐  regardless  of  7mespan  and  whether  the  moment  was  planned  or  enforced.  

Page 17: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Co-­‐Branded  Experiences  Hotels  increasingly  partner  with  established  consumer  brands  to  provide  leading-­‐edge,  repeatable  co-­‐  branded  experiences.  The  hotels  act  as  hosts    

with  the  partner  brands  driving  the  delivery  of  the  experience.  

Page 18: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Depth  not  Breadth  People  seek  increased  depth  in  travel  experiences  instead  of  breadth  –  

exploring  the  history  and  culture  of  a  place  and  its  travellers  over  7me  and  facilitated  by,  but  not  limited  to,  access  to  informa7on  and  intelligent  devices.  

Page 19: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Mul;-­‐genera;on  Travel  Large  numbers  elect  to  travel  collec7vely  with  three    

genera7ons  of  their  families  who  look  for  mixed  and  specialised    experiences  to  keep  each  genera7on  happy.  

Page 20: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Educa;onal  Experiences  Hospitality  combines  unique  experiences  with  opportuni7es  for  teaching    

and  learning  with  demand  driven  by  consumers  interested  in  using    spare  7me  to  be  part  of  the  experience.  

Page 21: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Urban  Detox  The  urban  detox  will  be  a  growing  need  for  those  unable  to    

leave  the  ci7es  but  wan7ng  the  immersive  relaxing  refresh:  Urban    resorts  will  make  the  long  distance  experience  local.  

Page 22: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Mul;ple  Iden;;es  As  guests  manage  mul7ple  iden77es  as  a  cocktail,  to  be  effec7ve  social    media  marke7ng  placorms  will  need  to  engage  the  most  appropriate  

personality  in  the  best  manner  at  the  right  7me  

Page 23: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Adapta;on  to  Climate  Change  More  extreme  weird  weather  drives  organiza7ons  to  plan  for  extremes,  

choosing  safer  opera7ng  loca7ons,  more  robust  design  op7ons    and  enhanced  risk  and  con7ngency  planning.  

Page 24: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Eastern  Centricity  With  China’s  500m-­‐strong  middle-­‐class  burgeoning  and  travel    barriers  diminishing,  Western  and  Eastern  cultures  meet  and    

feed  off  one  another,  shiding  global  norms.  

Page 25: Future of travel and hospitality - LCD - Mendoza lr

Mass  Medical  Tourism  In  key  loca7ons  where  hotel  footprints  align  with  the  medical  facili7es,    

there  will  be  growing  demand  for  accommoda7on  for  pa7ents,    their  families  and  healthcare  professionals.
