What are central innovations in the tourism sector?
The pandemic has speed up the need and the willingness to introduce new technologies. There are a lot of amazing new solutions came out lately that provide a better experience to visitors based on IoY, AI, or AR among many others. Big data is definitely one of them, the knowledge provided helps organizations to personalize the offers and to create customer-centric strategies to manage tourism in a more effective and sustainable way for both tourists and destinations.
How does the future look like in tourism?
The changes we can see right now show a positive move towards more sustainable tourism. The demand during the low seasons is increasing, visitors search more for nearby places and plan to stay longer at the same place than during the pre-pandemic period. On the other hand, the fast incorporation of novel technologies in the travel industry presents unpredictable changes and offering smart solutions to improve and personalize visitors experiences.
