The contemporary consumer is seeking more experience-oriented travel opportunities, and this list of March 2018 travel innovations touches on just a few of the products and services that companies are offering to make traveling as personalized and comfortable as possible.
Destination Pride is a new travel-based resource that visualizes a country's approach to LGBTQ+ issues. This service becomes especially useful to members of the LGBTQ+ community that are looking to make a more informed decision about the location they're traveling to.
Meanwhile, other initiatives are hoping to encourage the well-being of its passengers – like Cathay Pacific's Yoga and Meditation Program, which is available as an in-flight option for passengers. Other unique innovations include Revolut's newly offered pay-per-day travel insurance, which uses geo-location to detect when one is traveling, and only charges an individual for the days they spend on vacation.
