☆ How much does ‘shoulder season’ travel save? We crunch the numbers in 5 top spots
  + stars: | 2024-01-29 | by ( Monica Pitrelli | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
Nearly one in five Americans said they plan to travel less in 2024, with most citing costs as the reason , according to Intrepid Travel's 2024 Outlook Survey. And for some 70% of respondents of Intrepid's survey, that means avoiding peak season trips. Enter the era of "shoulder season" travel — or vacations booked between high and low seasons — which allows for cheaper trips, thinner crowds and better weather. Travelers are typically adults without school-aged children, however "parents are increasingly willing to take kids out of school for travel," he told CNBC Travel. Similar patterns of year-round travel are happening in parts of the Caribbean and Mexico, too.

Arms Race: What Travelers Can Expect in 2024 At the start of what promises to be a very busy year, we look ahead at what you’re likely to encounter. With 2023 in the rearview mirror, we look ahead at what travelers will face in 2024. At United Airlines, for example, smarter software can offer rebooking options and issue food and lodging vouchers when a flight is canceled, rather than just rebooking a flight. United Airlines has suspended its flights indefinitely, said Josh Freed, a United spokesman. This year, travelers are expected to choose faraway places and board small ships, according to Virtuoso, the consortium of luxury travel agencies.

☆ Travel companies are ‘greenwashing’ — here are 3 ways to find ones that aren't
  + stars: | 2023-01-29 | by ( Monica Pitrelli | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +6 min
But finding companies that are serious about sustainability isn't easy, said James Thornton, CEO of tour company Intrepid Travel. "You see hotels saying they're sustainable, and then you're using these little travel bottles for shampoos and shower gels," he said. "The honest truth is that every travel company is ultimately contributing towards the climate crisis," he said. "So the best thing any travel company can start to do is measure the greenhouse gas emissions it creates." Other companies with B Corp status include Seventh Generation, Ben & Jerry's, Aesop — and Patagonia, which Thornton called "arguably the most famous B Corp in the world."
