2021 PRIVATE AVIATION TRENDS
2020 brought with it unexpected challenges for the private aviation industry - and the travel-related space , overall - while also bringing to light opportunities for growth and evolution . What is the forecast for the year ahead ? Schubach Aviation Owner and CEO Kimberly Herrell pinpoints what trends to know as you consider flying private in 2021 .
Increased demand
Interest in flying private for both business and leisure will continue to grow exponentially as a worry-free alternative to flying commercial . Inquiries are expected to increase as travel increases , heading into the fall and winter of 2021 . In particular , Herrell foresees a significant rise in both domestic and international business travel as restrictions are lifted and in-person meetings become the norm once again .
Extended , multi-destination trips

In response to the new , remote workplace , clients will make
Mexico & Caribbean
the most of their flexibility with extended stay , international trips and multi-destination itineraries that allow them to experience what each destination has to offer .
Remote locations
Clients will continue to seek “ social distance ” from others , especially as in-demand travel destinations begin to welcome visitors again . Remote destinations and über-private accommodations , particularly those that allow for time spent outdoors in nature , will be highly sought after as clients look to get away . In the same vein , wellness-related travel will continue to be in demand .
Mexico and the Caribbean will continue to be a big draw in 2021 , as travel has remained relatively unrestricted . Clients will enjoy the comfort and familiarity as they revisit favorite destinations including Cabo San Lucas , Punta de Mita , Nassau and St . Thomas .
