With the pandemic putting the brakes on most of our travel plans (and social lives) in 2020, it's safe to say that a lot of our personal goals and priorities have also undergone a major transformation. With that in mind, we've decided to conduct a survey on 1,232 respondents between the ages of 18-35, in an attempt to understand what their travel intent for 2021 is and whether there's any shift in sentiment for millennials and Gen Z-ers when it comes to planning future travel.
This infographic presents our key takeaways from the survey on topics such as vaccination, top destinations, and the kind of travel experiences young people are looking for at this point.
