With more than half of surveyed winter travelers willing to forego gifts for a special trip this holiday season, Marriott Bonvoy is helping fulfill their travel dreams with its extraordinary portfolio of 30 brands and exclusive offers
BETHESDA, Md., Oct. 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- When it comes to travel today, people are making every moment count and no longer putting off that dream vacation. In fact, this holiday season more than one in three Americans1 who are planning a trip this winter aim to cross off at least one of their bucket list travel experiences, according to a recent YouGov survey conducted by Marriott Bonvoy®, Marriott International's award-winning travel program.
To unleash the urge to travel like never before, Marriott Bonvoy's celebratory Week of Wonders (October 6-13, 2022) is set to satisfy wanderlust with exclusive offers, opportunities for discounts on room rates, options to earn bonus points towards free stays, and capabilities to redeem incredible experiences through Marriott Bonvoy Moments™. The recent survey painted a picture of anticipation and excitement about the possibilities for travel this holiday season. Many are using their new-found freedom to explore new destinations. More than one in three of those surveyed Americans who are planning a trip this winter say they expect to travel to a place they have never been. The survey also revealed that travel was still a top priority despite economic concerns. Despite nearly half of Americans surveyed being concerned about the economy, 44% of those with winter travel itineraries plan to spend more on travel this holiday season than they have on travel in previous years. Further, over half of those Americans planning a winter trip said their desire to travel is so great that they are willing to sacrifice buying gifts in order to take a special trip this holiday season.
"Our survey shows that Americans are embracing travel and the joy of connecting with each other and with places in a tremendous way," said Anne Engelking-Smith, Vice President, Marriott Bonvoy Global Brand Marketing. "This year's Week of Wonders is an outstanding week to be a member with incredible offers that will satisfy the overwhelming urge to explore and experience the world whether it is a weekend getaway nearby or a trip halfway around the globe.
