Family Travel Industry Overview
Inflation remains elevated in the US, but this isn’t stopping families from prioritizing travel together. Half of consumers took a trip with family in the last year, and almost half say they have plans for a trip in the next 12 months. This is great news for the travel industry. Still, there is work to be done, as 26% of family travelers find it difficult to settle on trip activities. Brands can aim to solve pain points like this going forward.
Family & Multigenerational Travel Statistics
Below, we provide some consumer-focused stats on family and multigenerational travel in the US.
- Almost two-thirds of US adults are family travelers. On top of this, over half want to travel and spend quality time with family, with a skew toward Millennials. As Millennials seek to reinforce values passed onto their children by travelling, Baby Boomers fund their ventures (see our Marketing to Millennials Report).
- 68% of multigen travelers want more bespoke offerings from brands. This is not surprising, as multigenerational trips are more complex than regular leisure travel and require planning/coordination for a variety of ages and requirements. Travel advisors can fill a new niche – multigen travel.
- Over two-thirds of travelers state difficulty planning trips. Planners will abandon brands that don’t make trips seamless, so it’s important now to prioritize pre-trip planning/booking as much as the on-trip experience.
