Bleisure Travel – is it more pleasure than business?
Outboundinternational travel originating from North America expanded by more than 8% in 2016 with Americans spending an estimated $132.1 billion. Inbound travel to North America maintains its record-breaking levels of spending from last year hitting a whopping $204.9 billion.
Things to think about:
- Over ½ (~52%) of business trips are estimated to add days to enjoy cultural activities, food, and music, art and outdoor exploration.
- Attending conferences / conventions are more likely to turn into bleisure trips
- The shocker, 58% of the time the number of bleisure days for international travel exceed those for planned for business.
Are your business travelers taking a “bizcation” on your dime?
What is your company doing to manage policy, provide safety and security, and for those suppliers in the room – entice those almighty leisure dollars on the tail end of business?
