6. Objective & Methodology Our objective was to uncover the purchasing patterns of people who book travel arrangements online. What motivates them to choose one supplier over another? Are there any subtleties that travel/leisure providers can play to in an effort to attract travelers’ attention? Finally, we sought to differentiate between luxury and non-luxury travelers. Guideline conducted 407 online interviews, with respondents who have a total household income of at least $100,000 and who have taken a domestic or foreign vacation in the past 2 years. Two hundred surveys provide error margins of + 6.9% for each group, while comparisons of the two groups will have an error margin of + 11%.
