This suggests a significant growth opportunity in the luxury travel sector, driven by factors such as rising disposable incomes, changing consumer preferences, and an increasing focus on experiential and high-end travel experiences. The estimated revenue figure highlights the robust demand for luxury travel services and experiences worldwide, showcasing the economic importance and growth potential of this sector in the coming years.

The statistic indicates that the luxury travel industry experienced a significant impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in a substantial decline in spending amounting to $320 billion in the year 2020. This sharp decrease in spending highlights the magnitude of the disruption caused by the pandemic on the luxury travel sector, reflecting a combination of factors such as travel restrictions, fear of transmission, and economic uncertainty. The statistic underscores the vulnerability of the luxury travel industry to external shocks and demonstrates the widespread repercussions of the global health crisis on consumer behavior and economic activities within this specific market segment.

The statistic that baby boomers account for 80% of luxury travel spending implies that individuals belonging to the baby boomer generation, typically those born between 1946 and 1964, are responsible for a significant majority of expenditures in the luxury travel market. This suggests that baby boomers have both the financial means and the interest in indulging in higher-end travel experiences compared to other demographic groups. Understanding this statistic can inform businesses in the travel industry to tailor their marketing strategies and offerings to better target and cater to the preferences and spending habits of baby boomers, thereby potentially maximizing their profitability in the luxury travel sector.

The statistic indicates that the total value of the global luxury travel market was estimated to be $945.6 billion in the year 2019. This figure represents the collective spending on luxury travel services and experiences worldwide during that specific year. The size of the luxury travel market reflects the significant demand for high-end travel offerings by affluent individuals, including luxury accommodations, transportation, dining, and experiences. This statistic is valuable for businesses and policymakers in understanding the scale and economic impact of the luxury travel industry, informing strategic decision-making and investments in this sector.

The statistic indicates that prior to the onset of the pandemic, the luxury travel industry was experiencing a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. This growth rate suggests that the industry was steadily expanding over the years, likely due to factors such as increasing disposable incomes, changing consumer preferences towards luxury experiences, and overall economic growth. However, with the outbreak of the pandemic, the travel industry as a whole faced significant challenges and disruptions, leading to a sharp decline in luxury travel demand. The statistic highlights the contrast between the industry’s pre-pandemic growth trajectory and the subsequent impact of the global health crisis on luxury travel businesses.

The statistic that North America accounted for 30% of the global luxury travel market in 2019 indicates the geographical distribution of high-end travel spending during that year. This means that nearly a third of all luxury travel expenditures worldwide occurred in North America. It highlights the region’s significant presence and influence in the luxury travel sector, showcasing it as a key market for luxury travel services and experiences. This statistic suggests that North America is a lucrative market for luxury travel providers and a popular destination for high-end travelers seeking premium services and experiences.

The statistic ‘Tourists from China account for approximately 33% of the worldwide luxury travel spending’ implies that Chinese tourists are significant contributors to the global luxury travel market. This suggests that a third of all luxury travel spending worldwide can be attributed to Chinese tourists, indicating their substantial presence in the luxury travel sector. This statistic highlights the growing economic influence of Chinese travelers on international tourism, as well as the importance of catering to their preferences and spending habits in the luxury travel industry to capture a sizable market share. It also underscores the potential opportunities for businesses and destinations that can attract and cater to the affluent Chinese tourist segment.

The statistic indicates that a majority, specifically 68%, of luxury travelers prioritize relaxation during their vacation experiences. This preference suggests that this particular segment of travelers seeks tranquility, rejuvenation, and perhaps indulgence as a core aspect of their travel experiences. On the other hand, a smaller proportion, only 28%, are inclined towards seeking adventure during their vacation, showing a contrasting preference for excitement, exploration, and potentially stepping out of their comfort zones. This statistic underscores the diversity in preferences and motivations among luxury travelers, highlighting the significance of catering to different desires and interests within the travel industry to ensure maximum satisfaction and appeal to a wide range of clientele.

This statistic indicates that the luxury cruise travel segment is expected to experience a Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of approximately 6.8% by 2026. This growth projection suggests that the demand for luxury cruise travel is likely to steadily increase over the forecasted period. Factors contributing to this anticipated growth may include rising disposable incomes, an increasing preference for premium travel experiences, and a growing interest in luxury tourism. The CAGR metric is a valuable tool for assessing the consistent annual growth rate of a specific market segment, providing insights into its potential trajectory and future prospects.

The statistic highlights a noteworthy trend in the luxury travel industry, indicating that customized travel packages tailored specifically for millennials are increasingly popular, accounting for approximately 23% of all luxury travel. This suggests that millennials constitute a significant segment of luxury travelers who are seeking personalized and unique experiences when planning their vacations. The emphasis on customization and tailored experiences reflects the changing preferences and priorities of millennial travelers, who value authenticity, individuality, and experiences over material possessions. The rise of this trend underscores the evolving landscape of the luxury travel market, where traditional one-size-fits-all offerings are being overshadowed by personalized, experiential options to cater to the needs and desires of millennial consumers.

The statistic indicates that a significant majority, specifically 58%, of luxury travelers are willing to pay a premium in order to enjoy exclusive and less crowded experiences. This suggests that for a considerable portion of affluent travelers, the quality of the travel experience is more important than the cost, with a preference for exclusivity and avoiding crowded tourist spots. This trend highlights a growing desire among luxury travelers for more personalized and high-end travel experiences, potentially driving the demand for unique, private, and off-the-beaten-path offerings within the luxury travel industry.

This statistic indicates that the luxury travel market in the Asia-Pacific region is projected to experience a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 7.9% up to the year 2026. This suggests a consistent and steady annual increase in the market size and demand for luxury travel experiences in countries within the Asia-Pacific region. Factors driving this growth could include rising disposable incomes, increasing consumer awareness and interest in luxury travel, as well as the region’s growing reputation as a desirable destination for affluent travelers. This statistic is valuable for industry stakeholders such as travel companies, hotels, and tourism boards, as it highlights the potential opportunities for capturing a share of the growing luxury travel market in the region.

The statistic indicates that, on average, individuals categorized as luxury travelers are spending $13,100 per person, per trip. This average amount likely reflects the expenditures related to high-end accommodations, fine dining, upscale activities, and other luxury amenities during their travel experiences. The figure suggests that luxury travelers are willing to invest a significant amount of money in order to enhance their overall travel experience and access exclusive services and offerings. Understanding this average spending per person provides valuable insights into the preferences and behaviors of luxury travelers, as well as the economic impact of this segment on the travel industry.

The statistic ‘74% of luxury travel spenders are between the age of 31 and 44’ indicates that a significant majority of individuals who spend on luxury travel fall within the age demographic of 31 to 44 years old. This suggests that this particular age group has a higher propensity and willingness to invest in luxury travel experiences compared to other age brackets. The data implies that individuals in their early thirties to mid-forties prioritize luxury travel and allocate a significant portion of their spending towards this specific category, showcasing a potential target market for luxury travel providers and marketers looking to tailor their offerings to appeal to this age group.

This statistic indicates that prior to the outbreak of the pandemic, the luxury hotels industry was projected to achieve a market value of 115.80 billion USD by the year 2025. The estimate suggests strong growth and positive prospects for the luxury hotel segment up to 2025, with an expectation of increased revenues and market demand for high-end accommodation and services. However, the impact and implications of the global pandemic on the luxury hotels industry have likely altered these growth projections significantly, leading to uncertainties and potential shifts in the market dynamics for luxury hospitality moving forward.

This statistic highlights the projected growth rate of the luxury travel market in the Middle East, indicating that the region is anticipated to experience significant expansion compared to other regions. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 8.2% suggests that the luxury travel sector in the Middle East is expected to grow steadily at this rate until the year 2026. This growth rate reflects the increasing demand and interest in luxury travel experiences within the region, implying opportunities for businesses in the luxury travel industry to invest and capitalize on the expanding market in the Middle East.

The statistic that more than half of luxury travelers (51%) prefer to book their holidays through travel agents indicates that a significant portion of this demographic values the expertise and personalized service that travel agents provide. This preference for using travel agents suggests that luxury travelers may prioritize convenience, customized itineraries, and peace of mind in their vacation planning process. By choosing to book through travel agents, these travelers may also seek to access exclusive deals, perks, and insider knowledge that could enhance their overall travel experience. Overall, this statistic highlights the continued relevance and importance of travel agents in catering to the needs and preferences of luxury travelers seeking high-quality and stress-free holiday arrangements.

In the context of luxury travel preferences, approximately 49% of luxury travelers consider superior quality as a defining factor of luxury, indicating an emphasis on high-end products and materials. On the other hand, 67% of luxury travelers associate luxury with superior service, highlighting the importance of personalized and exceptional customer care in their luxury travel experiences. These statistics suggest that luxury travelers have diverse interpretations of what constitutes luxury, with a significant portion valuing both quality and service as key components of their desired travel experiences. This information can guide luxury travel providers in understanding and meeting the varied preferences of their clientele to deliver truly luxurious and satisfying experiences.

The statistic indicates a significant increase in the demand for sustainable travel among luxury travelers, with a 50% rise reported as of 2018 compared to previous years. This suggests that more affluent individuals are expressing a preference for environmentally and socially responsible travel practices, which can include supporting local communities, minimizing their carbon footprint, and choosing accommodations and activities that prioritize sustainability. The growing interest in sustainable travel among luxury travelers may be driven by a heightened awareness of environmental issues, a desire to contribute positively to the places they visit, and an increasing focus on ethical consumption and responsible tourism. This trend could have implications for the travel industry, as businesses may need to adapt their offerings to cater to this evolving consumer preference.

The statistic that 39% of luxury travelers choose travel destinations based on culinary experiences indicates that a significant portion of high-end travelers prioritize food experiences when selecting where to travel. This suggests that a sizable market segment values exploring local cuisines, tasting unique dishes, and indulging in gastronomic delights as integral parts of their travel experiences. Factors such as dining options, food culture, and culinary reputation are likely key considerations for these luxury travelers when making travel decisions. Additionally, this statistic highlights the growing trend of food tourism and the increasing importance of culinary offerings in the overall travel experience for this particular demographic.

Why adventure cruising on a small ship is the best way to see Australia’s Kimberley region

Share this article

Small-group cruises allow access to secluded spots larger ships can't reach, offering exclusive experiences.

Small-group adventurer cruises are becoming increasingly popular in the Kimberley’s Broome region because they’re a unique way to experience this remote part of Australia, writes Linda Hanan

Western Australia’s Kimberley coast is famous for its dramatic landscapes and having an abundance of water, and there’s no better way to experience the region than on a cruise. Smaller-vessel adventure-style cruises are becoming increasingly popular as they’re a unique way to experience this remote part of the country. If you’ve been thinking about taking the plunge to discover more about this iconic destination across the water, here’s why you should consider adventure cruising on a smaller vessel.

Small numbers are a highlight of a small cruise

Small group numbers are a highlight of these cruises, with vessels taking between 12 and 36 passengers (depending on the cruise operator). Numbers like these provide a good indication that there’s going to be no crowds to beat while you’re on board or during excursions. Think of it as a more intimate and casual style of cruising compared to being on the more typical larger-style ships. Getting to know fellow passengers and crew quickly is another advantage of travelling with a smaller group, and the interaction between passengers and crew can be likened to travelling with good friends.

Small ships get you to places that larger ships can’t

Kimberley’s staggering 12-metre tides are the second largest in the world, so it’s an area where smaller vessels have a big advantage. These vessels get you where the larger ships can’t as they’re able to cruise rivers and tributaries closer to the mainland. That’s a mighty benefit when you can be surrounded by dramatic scenery while up close and personal with towering ancient cliffs as the vessel glides along secluded rivers. You’ll likely have more time on excursions as well, as you don’t need to be transported for long distances by tenders, which can often be the case with larger ships.

Cruising times and itineraries

The cruising season is brief, running for six months between mid-March and late August to coincide with dry season timing in Australia’s north . If you’re crunched for time, cruises start at six days, although 8-14 days are more popular. The shorter cruises lasting 6-9 days leave from the laid-back resort town of Broome in the Kimberley’s west, or one of the region’s major rivers to the area’s north. These cruises take in some of the region’s highlights and may include a breathtaking light-aircraft flight to experience the Kimberley from the air. The longer 14-day cruises depart from Darwin, Wyndham/Kununurra and Broome (or vice versa). Often referred to as an “ultimate” cruise, the itineraries between Broome and Wyndham/Kununurra (or vice versa) are the best option if you’re looking to spend the maximum possible time on Kimberley waters. Each cruise operator has their own set itinerary, but it’s not uncommon for skippers to change course or have spontaneous stops to get passengers closer to the action.

Adventures everyday

Adventure is the name of the game and cruises of this calibre have it in spades. Unlike a larger ship’s sheer size that prevents it getting close to the mainland, you’re well placed in the thick of things and get right up close on a smaller vessel. And while you can choose your own daily adventures, it’s possible to be off the vessel up to three times a day for a variety of experiences the region is renowned for. Activities include daily visits to gorgeous refreshing waterfalls and swimming in picture-perfect waterholes that very few ever get to witness and are a delight for the senses. While bushwalking to remote historical WWII wrecks or visiting unique 40,000-year-old indigenous art sites that are only accessible by water - guaranting they’re visited by very few.

If fishing is your thing, you’ll be completely in your element when cruising the Kimberley coast. This is one of the most popular activities all over Kimberley as the region teems with a vast array of aquatic life. Have you ever wanted to catch a barramundi? These elusive fish are prized all over Australia’s north and grow to more than a metre, with most small vessels having their own secret fishing spots they share with passengers. Your chances really don’t get much better while fishing in the region’s coastal rivers, and you’re well and truly in the box seat to fulfil that dream. And whether you’re a keen fisherman or simply happy to dangle a line, you don’t need to supply anything as all the fishing gear is included. Although the aquatic action doesn’t stop there; seafood doesn’t get much fresher when cruise activities include feasting on cooked mud crabs collected from mangroves and succulent oysters prised off rocks from a secluded island.

Experience the ship’s every luxury by night

After a day of adventure and activities, luxury awaits you back on deck. As the sun begins to dip, being up front on the bow is the place to be. An intimate setting of chatting to new friends with a drink in hand while watching a spectacular Kimberley sunset is something to behold. While passengers are taking in the last of the daylight, the onboard chef prepares gourmet meals (including the delicious seafood caught during the cruise), with meals cooked to an individual’s liking.

And while you may be cruising on a smaller vessel, that certainly doesn’t mean you’re cramped for space. With fewer passengers onboard, there’s plenty of room to relax and retreat in the lounge, on the bow and other deck areas, or from the comfort of your cabin. You can also expect itineraries to be carefully curated, ensuring passengers soak up as much of the dramatic Kimberley coastal and tributary landscape during daylight hours. At times, skippers take advantage of steaming through the night, with passengers waking up so close to towering ancient rich-red sandstone cliffs you feel you could reach out and touch them.

With a growing focus on the environment and sustainable travel practices, the popularity of cruising on these types of vessels will only continue. Choosing the right adventure cruise really comes down to how long you’d like to cruise for, what you’d most like to see and experience, and when you can travel. With all the benefits of small-vessel adventure cruising along with their points of difference, book well in advance to secure your preferences as cruises sell out quickly.

KIMBERLEY, AUSTRALIA

The most direct route for Kiwis to get to Darwin is via Brisbane or Sydney with Air New Zealand, Qantas, and Virgin Australia . Air North and Nexus Airlines offer connecting flights to Broome. Connecting flights are also available to Kununurra where cruise passengers are transferred to Wyndham.

Blade launches luxury shuttle bus to the Hamptons for summer – but a single seat could set you back $275

Passengers can travel in style with cashmere blankets and espresso martinis, article bookmarked.

The  US  helicopter charter company Blade is wheeling out a luxury bus service from New York City to the Hamptons this May – and tickets aren’t cheap.

Initially founded 10 years ago as a way to swerve heavy vehicle traffic when commuting out of NYC, Blade’s helicopter seats currently shuttle Hampton-goers to eastern Long Island from $1,050 (£837) for a 40-minute flight.

Now, to find the middle ground between high-end flying and the budget Hampton Jitney bus, the helicopter operator is “elevating” the ground travel experience.

The new first-class transport option is a partnership between Blade and Jet – a high-end coach service that runs from New York to Washington DC.

Revamped 19-seat Jet coaches will feature a ‘Passenger Experience Team Member’ call button, wifi, hot towels and cashmere blankets for a “premium” bus ride.

Espresso martinis from a stocked bar, Sweetgreen salads and PopUp bagels are on the menu alongside seats that recline 45 degrees with plenty of legroom for the 95-mile journey to the beach.

Tickets start from $195 each way for double-row seats, and the seven single left side seats will set you back $275. Pets can also ride with their owners and receive the celebrity treatment for an additional charge.

New Yorkers will board the bus from business and shopping district Hudson Yards in Manhattan for the two-hour hop to stops in the Hamptons, including Southampton, Bridgehampton and East Hampton.

The return route will drop passengers at an East Side location before the Streamliner’s final stop back at Hudson Yards.

Affordable bus tickets with Jitney – a Hamptons shuttle of 50 years – for multi-stop journeys start from $41, and although Blade’s buses won’t be immune to the Long Island Expressway traffic, they say the travel will be more similar to the private jet experience.

The helicopter operator hopes Hamptons-bound NYC weekenders, specifically young people, will opt out of travelling in chauffeured cars or helicopter rides in favour of the new service.

Roisin Branch, Blade’s CMO, told  The Post :  “We’re excited about the ‘white space’ that exists between a $40 Jitney ride and a $1,000 helicopter flight.

“Until electric vertical aircraft are available, we can’t make helicopter travel less expensive. But what we can do is elevate the ground travel experience, which has not changed in over a century.”

The two Hamptons Streamliners debut on Friday with services running from Memorial Day weekend (25 May) until the end of the summer season, Labor Day .

Touring the Top 10 Moscow Metro Stations

By Claudia Looi 2 Comments

Komsomolskaya metro station looks like a museum. It has vaulted ceilings and baroque decor.

Hidden underground, in the heart of Moscow, are historical and architectural treasures of Russia. These are Soviet-era creations – the metro stations of Moscow.

Our guide Maria introduced these elaborate metro stations as “the palaces for the people.” Built between 1937 and 1955, each station holds its own history and stories. Stalin had the idea of building beautiful underground spaces that the masses could enjoy. They would look like museums, art centers, concert halls, palaces and churches. Each would have a different theme. None would be alike.

The two-hour private tour was with a former Intourist tour guide named Maria. Maria lived in Moscow all her life and through the communist era of 60s to 90s. She has been a tour guide for more than 30 years. Being in her 60s, she moved rather quickly for her age. We traveled and crammed with Maria and other Muscovites on the metro to visit 10 different metro stations.

Moscow subways are very clean

To Maria, every street, metro and building told a story. I couldn’t keep up with her stories. I don’t remember most of what she said because I was just thrilled being in Moscow.   Added to that, she spilled out so many Russian words and names, which to one who can’t read Cyrillic, sounded so foreign and could be easily forgotten.

The metro tour was the first part of our all day tour of Moscow with Maria. Here are the stations we visited:

1. Komsomolskaya Metro Station  is the most beautiful of them all. Painted yellow and decorated with chandeliers, gold leaves and semi precious stones, the station looks like a stately museum. And possibly decorated like a palace. I saw Komsomolskaya first, before the rest of the stations upon arrival in Moscow by train from St. Petersburg.

2. Revolution Square Metro Station (Ploshchad Revolyutsii) has marble arches and 72 bronze sculptures designed by Alexey Dushkin. The marble arches are flanked by the bronze sculptures. If you look closely you will see passersby touching the bronze dog's nose. Legend has it that good luck comes to those who touch the dog's nose.

3. Arbatskaya Metro Station served as a shelter during the Soviet-era. It is one of the largest and the deepest metro stations in Moscow.

4. Biblioteka Imeni Lenina Metro Station was built in 1935 and named after the Russian State Library. It is located near the library and has a big mosaic portrait of Lenin and yellow ceramic tiles on the track walls.

5. Kievskaya Metro Station was one of the first to be completed in Moscow. Named after the capital city of Ukraine by Kiev-born, Nikita Khruschev, Stalin's successor.

6. Novoslobodskaya Metro Station  was built in 1952. It has 32 stained glass murals with brass borders.

7. Kurskaya Metro Station was one of the first few to be built in Moscow in 1938. It has ceiling panels and artwork showing Soviet leadership, Soviet lifestyle and political power. It has a dome with patriotic slogans decorated with red stars representing the Soviet's World War II Hall of Fame. Kurskaya Metro Station is a must-visit station in Moscow.

8. Mayakovskaya Metro Station built in 1938. It was named after Russian poet Vladmir Mayakovsky. This is one of the most beautiful metro stations in the world with 34 mosaics painted by Alexander Deyneka.

9. Belorusskaya Metro Station is named after the people of Belarus. In the picture below, there are statues of 3 members of the Partisan Resistance in Belarus during World War II. The statues were sculpted by Sergei Orlov, S. Rabinovich and I. Slonim.

10. Teatralnaya Metro Station (Theatre Metro Station) is located near the Bolshoi Theatre.

Until now, the closest we’ve got to the feeling of luxury when flying was walking past the designer shops in the airport on our way to the loo.

But there’s a new and nifty way for us to travel in style and feel like we’re living that bad and bougie lifestyle on a budget.

Priority Pass is the world’s largest independent airport lounge access programme and basically offers you jammy discounts on over 1400 lounges across 600 cities in 148 countries.

Suffer from pre-flight nerves? The heaving crowds pouring out of every corner won’t help. But with Priority Pass , you get access to the calm and quiet lounges and get to ease in to vacation mode in style.

The lounges also offer free Wifi to keep you connected and something to eat and drink, including free alcohol in most. A complimentary glass of something bubbly? You don’t have to tell us twice.

Also, it doesn’t matter what ticket you’re flying on. You could have nabbed the last seat by the loos in economy and still be able to enjoy a feeling of decadence in the lounges.

Plus, if you arrive early you may even be able to enjoy some luxury treatments. A calming head massage before we head off? What a time to be alive.

A Standard Plus Membership is £229 per year , which works out to just over £19 a month. For that, you get ten free lounge visits and you can pay £24 per visit for a plus one.

The Standard Membership is just £69 per year and that means every visit to the lounge is just £24. Which, considering you get free Wifi and food and drink, is a straight up bargain, right?

And we also have some extra fab news as Metro readers can now get 30% off Standard and 20% off Standard Plus .

The Priority Pass has a ton of lounges across Europe, including London airports.

For instance, The Plaza Premium Lounge at Heathrow offers premium alcoholic drinks and there’s even a nap room. Seriously, a room to take a nap. It’s all we’ve ever wanted because quite frankly, life is exhausting.

Returning from a trip to the Big Apple ? JFK Airport has the Primeclass Lounge and you can tuck in to a gorgeous selection of hot and cold dishes, plus unlimited alcohol.
