Gen Z values authenticity, budget-friendly destinations, and affordable accommodations. They trust fellow travellers more than any AI generated slogan.

Q. Will the media mix skew towards digital in 2025?
Yes, in 2025, the media mix will heavily skew towards digital- no surprise there. With social media, video content, and mobile-first interactions taking over, brands will focus on platforms like Instagram, and YouTube to connect with travelers.
