The AARP report, released in February 2024, explores key developments in the travel industry in 2024. It provides detailed information on general travel trends, transportation and accommodation preferences, and nontravelers behaviours. It highlights that in 2024, travelers with disabilities are expected to travel at similar rates to their counterparts but with lower anticipated spending. Additionally, travelers aged 50-plus are maintaining their travel plans from 2023, with a focus on domestic road trips and a consistent number of trips planned.
