TORONTO, April 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Today,
Booking.com releases new research, with insights gathered from more
than 31,000 travellers across 34 countries and territories,
exploring the latest consumer attitudes, priorities and influences
related to sustainable travel, revealing:
- 50% of Canadians feel travelling more sustainably is important,
but not a primary consideration when planning or booking
travel
- 29% feel the damage already done is irreversible, and that the
choices they make are not going to change that, while a quarter of
Canadian travellers (26%) don't believe climate change is as severe
as people make it out to be
- With 43% believing governments hold the most potential for
countering economic impacts of travel, and 41% thinking travel
service providers hold the key to counteracting the environmental
factors, these new insights illuminate the need for increased
collaboration to remedy nascent consumer feelings of powerlessness
and ensure the continued prioritization of a more sustainable
travel industry
