Despite an uncertain economy , travelers are ready to hit the road in 2024 — big time . “ We are continuing to see very strong interest in travel for 2024 and beyond ,” said Brady Binstadt , owner and CEO of the luxury adventure travel company Geographic Expeditions ( GeoEx ).

Travelers are planning far in advance “ to get exactly what they want ,” a practice Binstadt attributes in part to increasing trip lengths . “ We are still seeing folks travel a bit more slowly ,” he said , adding that travelers are complementing cultural experiences with time to relax and unwind . He further attributes travelers ’ early booking enthusiasm to the overall strength of the market : “ The premier properties and services are in such demand .”
Ready to meet that red-hot demand is an impressive array of new offerings around the globe — and there ’ s something for everyone , from Disney fans to cruise devotees and luxury addicts . Here ’ s what to expect across the industry in 2024 .
