USA Titan Travel Trends 2019

'USA pips Italy to the top spot in escorted tours and cruise market'

USA pips Italy to the top spot in Titan Travel?s first ever Travel Trends report for the escorted tours and cruise market.

Titan analysed the results of its 429 tours and cruises and consulted with its expert product team, as well as media and industry insiders, and taken an up-close look at the state of the market in 2019, and beyond, to consider where its customers are going and what appear to be the key trends in their decision-making process.

In the 20-page report, the USA has bounced back to take the top spot from perennial favourite Italy, with the diversity of its product seen as a key factor. The operator?s Southern Sights and Sounds tour has, for the first time, overtaken Titan?s California and the Golden West itinerary as its most popular US tour. 

Emerging destinations such as Armenia, Georgia and Uzbekistan are being considered by holidaymakers looking for adventure and those who have the time and money for it. Further Titan saw a spike in escorted holidays to Egypt as it jumped up some 21 places compared to its figures for last year, suggesting customers are feeling more confident to travel to the North African country as part of a group. Surprisingly, Norway has fallen down five places in comparison to 2018, although cruise-based holidays to the country?s fjords have seen an increase of interest going into the New Year.

Andy Squirrell, managing director of the tour operator, said: ?We are happy to reveal the results of our first-ever Titan trends report. This report takes a really in-depth look into how the landscape of escorted touring is changing. We know our customers and when it comes to destinations and experiences it?s important that we share our expertise, so they can always make an informed decision.?
