The biggest travel trend for 2025? Staying away longer

BBC  

The biggest travel trend for 2025? Globally, long leisure trips stand out as the most popular type of travel ahead of weekend getaways and road trips, with Skift's report calling 2025 "the year of long getaways". Founder and CEO Brian Tan told the BBC, " noted a continued increase in average length of travel to 13.5 days, as well as more travellers preferring a single-destination personalised journey, where they can explore a culture more deeply, instead of multi-country trips." Getty Images Slowing things down and enjoying a single destination for longer is on the up If seeking out a quiet café or a photogenic overlook between meetings counts as depth, Skift's report also hails an increase in "blended travel", trips that include both work and leisure, which are occasionally referred to by the mush-mouth portmanteau of "bleisure". Getty Images 'Hacking' holiday days to enjoy more time away has become more popular recently "Many are looking at when the public holidays are, and then taking their vacations around those holidays, such as Labor Day," says Paul Charles, CEO of The PC Agency, a PR and travel trade marketing consultancy.
