Study findings
Social media will approach saturation point, at 80-90% worldwide; a tweet will become a de facto global currency by 2030
‘Social capital’ will be readily quantifiable by 2030
Ethical concerns will have a substantial impact, primarily on a dedicated group of travellers but important to note that ethical considerations will continue to play some role in many people's travel choices more generally
More people travelling for business, and more often the nature of that travel will change with increasing ‘leisure’ experiences

Ethical Traveller

Study findings
Move from a demographic
segmentation of travellers to a behavioural
understanding of how and why people travel
Be prepared to package offers that tap into how traveller behaviour is
likely to evolve

Consider the balance between technology and human service, depending on the
traveller tribe
Whether destination or provider, ensure the travel experience is
connected and easily shareable at every step
of the journey

Outbound travel spend vastly exceeds inbound, particularly for HNWIs (high net worth individuals).
However, the qualitative research indicates an important rise in Ethical Travellers, as some affluent Russian cosmopolitans have non-materialistic travel desires. Increasingly, they may look for opportunities to volunteer, lessen their environmental impact, and develop themselves as individuals from their travel.

Study findings for Russia
Spending within the country by country’s residents is expected to grow by 2.4 %(*) by 2025 (**)
A minority of Russians, carrying serious spending power, have a preference for international over intranational travel, spend liberally, and are open to more opulent luxury propositions.
Understanding the needs of theReward Hunters tribe will be essential in catering to this segment.

Inbound travel is still concentrated heavily in a small group of major cities. This will favour visitors with particular objectives - visiting historic buildings, theatres, museums etc., cultural immersion.
Spending withinthe country by international tourists is expected to grow by 4.9%(*) by 2025(**)
Russian inbound tourism, looks like a more attractive proposition going forward to Cultural Purists than Simplicity Searchers.
Russia is also establishing itself as a top destination for medical tourism, appealing to certain Obligation Meeters.
