Over the past decade, we have seen tremendous growth in technology, we have evolved over the past from using pagers to using smartphone’s, from using typewriters to using printers, etc. Technology has changed the lifestyle and living of people with smartphones becoming an integral part of one’s life.
The Destiny…. future of travel agents and agencies is all about technology.
Let us vindicate this by taking an example…
Nowadays we rarely see people going to travel companies and asking them to book tickets, as technology has grown rapidly and peoples thinking has become smarter. People are using the internet to book their tickets rather than booking offline through travel businesses. People choose to use online over offline it maybe hotel room booking, flight booking. Statistics show that in 2018, 66.7% of the bookings were from direct website bookings.
Say that there are approximately 10,000 travel agents across the globe and do all these 10,000 travel agents provide online services to their customers for booking hotels or flight? NO, only a few of them let’s just say 30% of them provide online services and rest of them are handling their businesses offline. Providing online services to customers will boost the business.
We can see a decline in the travel firms in the coming future if the technology is not provided to people like online services, as the millennial's choose the very easiest way for every possible service.
Now the question for travel agents is how to make their business come online?
