Women in Travel & Tourism
Today’s international outbound tourism market has witnessed the brisk growth of the female traveller segment. Female travellers currently comprise 50% of the world’s leisure travel population and have become the primary target market for many tourism businesses. Globally, women play a significant role in tourism, as visitors, hosts and employees in the tourism sector. Women are travel influencers and are increasingly gaining importance in travel consumption. Female travellers possess strong purchasing power and demonstrate a greater intent than their male counterparts to spend more at tourism destinations.
In this session, we will like to share the motivations, needs, expectations of women as travellers, the services currently available to provide for and target this market and the various opportunities available to the industry in terms of services and business opportunities.
