This document discusses the evolution of tourism from online booking platforms to personalized destination experiences. It notes that while the first major wave was the rise of online travel agencies and metasearch sites for booking flights and hotels, the next wave involves markets evolving into experiences and focusing more on individual traveler experiences. Key trends highlighted include the growth of tours and activities booking, explosive growth of mobile usage in travel, and companies competing to own the customer relationship across the entire travel journey. The document outlines many new approaches from companies that are focusing on curating and providing customized local experiences and activities for travelers.

Travel and hospitality industry - 2017 analytics landscapeMetriplica
Use and importance of analytical strategies in the travel and hospitality domain. This relatively recent development presents both a unique challenge and an extraordinary opportunity. An opportunity that many brands are not fully capitalizing on. We travel to connect, detach, explore and experience the world outside our homes. Some of us travel for business while others travel to discover themselves.
Let's see how.
Shopping has always been social – whether we’re buying a camera, booking a holiday or renting a car. Since the first transactions in the earliest marketplaces, people bought from people and discussed their decisions with other people.

18. 3 big trends from tnooz 2013 outlook
1. Tours and activities heats up even more
•
•
After several big announcements in the fall of this year, the burgeoning tours and activities sector
will heat up even more in 2013.
Expect to see big funding rounds, consolidations, and acquisitions – from players you wouldn’t
expect. Will the booking numbers match the hype? Watch this space in 2013.
2. Mobile explodes
•
•
With the continued proliferation of smartphones and other mobile devices (especially in Asia),
expect a non-mobile only brand to announce more than 50% of their bookings coming from mobile
devices in 2013.
Additional new models based on the always-connected traveler will emerge and attract immediate
clones.
3. Big battle about who owns the customer ahead
•
•
If a customer is at an airport – who should be interacting with them (e.g. on a mobile device) –
should it be the airport or the airline? What about when they arrive in destination – should it be the
DMO? The airline that flew them there? The OTA that sold the flight? The hotel they are staying at?
2013 will see this battle commence as companies begin to build web / mobile services away from
their core in order to build deeper customer relationships around the entire travel experience, not
just their part of it.
