Finding Your Ideal Travel Adventure in 2022
After a year of limited travel opportunities , Canadians are getting ready to explore the world . Check out some trends in travel we are starting to see for 2022 .
After two years of staycations and time to think about where to go next , 2022 is proving to be a huge rebound year for travel . We are seeing a lot of bookings for 2022 and beyond at Collette as travellers are itching to get back on the road ! With restrictions loosening worldwide and an end to pre-admission COVID testing for fully vaccinated Canadians , it ’ s time to get back out there .
A “ 2022 Travel Trends ” report from an online travel agency projected that , regardless of where Canadians decide to travel , they are searching for an enriching experience on the road . The agency referred to this in their report as the GOAT mindset , or Greatest Of All Trips , and sixty-one per cent of Canadians were looking to take that great trip in 2022 . Another agency polled travellers in Canada and around the world and found the following :
● Sixty-two per cent of polled travellers plan to take two to four trips in 2022 .
● Sixty-four per cent plan to spend more money on domestic travel in 2022 .
● Seventy-two per cent plan to spend more money on international travel than they did last year .
Deep Dives into America and Beyond
In the face of unprecedented travel restrictions , Canadian travellers revelled in the opportunity to see what they could discover within North America , and that trend is continuing . A new report from lifestyle and news publication Vancouver is Awesome stated that the number one travel destination for Canadians in 2022 is the United States , with Italy coming in second .
Enjoy Time Outside
In the last year , trips that connected travellers with the great outdoors were some of the most popular . According to a report from the World Travel & Tourism Council , that will continue .
