Royal Caribbean reveals cruising is a good option for last – minute travel

Friday, June 9, 2023

Royal Caribbean International reveals in a survey that people in Ireland are becoming more spontaneous with their travel plans, including booking last–minute holidays and letting fate decide their gateway destination.

In that reserach, Royal Carinnean International also pointed out that 80% of those who use Tik Tok in Ireland stated they either have or would let the platform choose their next holiday destination for them.

Further highlights from the survey shows that when it comes to the types of spontaneous trip travellers are booking, the research revealed that half of Ireland residents are looking to travel with their partner (50%), 31% opt for short–haul trips, and 41% travel with children.

This is beyond a Gen Z trend: it appears the interest in spontaneous travel spans multiple age groups. The research showed 30% of 25 – 34s and 21% of 35 – 44s said they would let the filter decide their destination at random.

More than one in 10 people (16%) stated it would take them less than one week to plan their next holiday.
