Instead, they are investing in travel experiences.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">To some extent, this is to be expected. They have grown up with the Internet and through social media they have also grown up with deeper connections to the world, which is fuelling their desire to enrich lives through travel. However, this generation has very unique attitudes and expectation from the travel industry, demanding above all authentic, personalized, convenient and safe travel experiences.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u201cHere at Expedia, we see ourselves as a technology company in the business of travel, and we leverage our powerful data &amp; insights to deliver a personalized customer experiences that come with more choice, flexibility and reliability\u201d, said Simon Fiquet, General Manager for Southeastasia and India, Expedia group. \u201cPerhaps the most valuable insight we have gained from this Report is that by tailoring the experiences for the Millennial traveller, we stand to gain their trust for years to come, as indicated by the importance they place on the opinion of their peers whom they trust and find relatable\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Authenticity and personalization of Travel Experience<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Authenticity to the Millennials means above all cultural appreciation, \u201cliving like a local\u201d; independence and originality. The sheer amount of choices in travelling options is prompting the Millennials to demand perfect personalization &#8211; challenging the industry to understand them better than they even do themselves.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Based on the Report, three in four Millennials are interested in a service that could provide personalised travel recommendations based on their budget. However, when asked the same about a service that was based on personality alone, 2 in 3 were still interested \u2013 suggesting that the demand for personalised services extends beyond price sensitivity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">A majority of APAC travellers, and 72 percent of Malaysian respondents think that experiencing the authentic culture of a place is the most important aspect of their holiday abroad, while the figures for Western-based travellers are noticeably lower.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Convenience and Safety<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The Millennials are the poster generation for today\u2019s technology-solves-all mentality, applying it to improve every aspect of their lives.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Millennials expect convenience at all touch-points: fewer confirmation emails to clutter the inbox; being able to book or cancel a holiday last-minute, or even switch names on tickets if need be; having more payment options to divide, amalgamate or otherwise play with costs. 66 per cent said they were interested in a service that would allow travellers to split the holiday cost online with another person.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Malaysians go even further with 75 per cent saying they were very interested in having a wearable technology that could automatically adjust the hotel room temperature according to one\u2019s own body temperature\u201d and are only surpassed by Thailand, China and India. Such innovative features seemed to be a lot less important to the West.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The other important factor that stood out when choosing a travel experience was the concern for personal safety. For Asia Pacific travellers (with a few country exceptions) this seemed to be of a greater concern in contrast to Western travellers. Interestingly, the concern for personal safety abroad was greater for Malaysians, at 60 percent compared to Singaporeans at 59 percent.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Millennial risk- aversion extends beyond just bodily safety to even the \u201crisk\u201d of having a bad time. The Report observed that to this generation, the verified authenticity \u2013 peers vouching for both safety and success, was imperative. A travel experience without such \u2018warranty\u2019 was not of interest to this group.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In most non-Western markets, the influence of fellow consumers (review sites, blogs, travel forums) is the most important source of influence when it comes to their holiday decision-making &#8211; more so than close contacts (friends, family, social network contacts) and industry experts (travel agents, travel providers, expert opinion websites).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>The Role of Social Media<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">For the generation that grew up with Internet, it\u2019s not surprising that inspiration for holiday plans are noticeably influenced by what has been seen on social media and 44 percent has admitted that holiday photos posted by contacts on social media influence the holiday plans. Although the final choice is influenced also by the advice from family and friends, (online) travel agents and peer-led reviews.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">30 percent of Millennials find sharing images online that represent their lifestyle very valuable to their overall entertainment, with a further 63 percent finding this less valuable. On average, APAC travellers are about twice as likely to find such peer response important compared to travellers from Western countries.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Finally, the Report finds that APAC travellers across the Millennial demographics are much more willing to share personal data in exchange for recommendations, advice\/tips, and personalised service assurance. Perhaps the most interesting finding from this Report is that a majority does not consider discounts a good enough reason to share their personal data \u2013 but who do consider other forms of personalisation valuable enough to be persuaded. This represents 32% of the Millennial cohort \u2013 double the size of those who consider personalised discounts to be the only good reason to share data.<\/p>\n<p>More findings from the global Millennial Traveller Report can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/travelblog.expedia.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Expedia-Future-Foundation-Report-Jan-2017-FINAL.pdf\"><span style=\"color: #389aba\">here<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">END<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Study<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Drawing on established and emerging trend research tracked by Foresight Factory, this report further explores the key trends that pose changes and pressures for the Millennial vacation and booking process.
