The tech and travel industry will experience some major changes this year. From eco-conscious tourists to completely digitalised airport experience, 2020 seems to have a lot in store for us:

  • Travellers are willing to compensate for their share of CO2 emissions.
  • Combining air and train travel will become popular as travel operators are joining forces to offer rail tickets for shorter distances as an alternative to flying.
  • Your face will be your passport as digitalisation gains momentum in the aviation.
  • Artificial Intelligence (AI) will drastically cut down waiting time in unforeseen situations like thunderstorm.
  • Airport experiences will be more about luxury and relaxation as new innovations will further improve the ways travellers spend time at the airport.
  • Travellers will prefer to be detached from their phone. They will either prefer to stay off their mobile phone while on holiday, or at least use it less.
