In our last Travel Recovery Trend Report, covering the second quarter of 2021, we highlighted several positive signs for the industry.

This latest installment tracks this momentum using our first-party Expedia Group traveler data and custom research, presented at both a global and regional level. Travel marketers can use these latest insights to inspire travelers and continue their road to recovery.
