Indians tourists are going to be amongst the top spenders in 2023 for travel. Between the age of 23-40 years, more travellers are willing to upgrade their experience and splurge on holidays According to research by World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC), the travel & tourism sector’s contribution to the Indian economy would surpass the pre-pandemic levels in 2024.
Travelling on a ‘save while spending’ is the new trend and this mode will continue to be a popular choice. In the past two years, travellers have adapted to the idea of ‘travel-now-pay-later’. Though they do want to travel, most of them do not want to use their savings for the same as the fear of another pandemic-like situation still lurks on.
