PhoCusWright’s European Consumer Travel Report explores key trends and indicators impacting consumer travel in Europe. According to the report, French travelers show a strong ratio of consumers who plan to travel more versus travel less. The German outlook is also positive, though more moderate. U.K. travelers, in contrast, show a very slight growth trajectory for the upcoming year. Among those with Internet access, just 6 percent of French travelers, 9 percent of German travelers and 5 percent of U.K. travelers plan and book their trips completely offline. When shopping for leisure travel, the majority of French, German and U.K. travelers typically use general search engines, which rank first among website categories.
