What Is the Future of Travel in 2022? | EP. 14

What is the future of travel in 2022? With COVID restrictions loosening across the country, many industry experts predict that travel will return to pre-pandemic levels in the coming year, with people taking big, ambitious trips after two years of being stuck at home. But the travel industry is not the same as it was, and people’s attitudes toward travel changed greatly during the pandemic. Destination road trips surged. The ability to work and learn remotely prompted people to book “flexcations.” And hotels continued to battle with sites like AirBnb and VRBO for reservations. To understand how the travel industry is changing, BU Today’s executive editor, Doug Most, spoke with Makarand Mody, a School of Hospitality Administration associate professor of hospitality marketing, who shed some light on the future of travel in 2022, and beyond.
