Accessible Travels

People with disabilities now have more accessible travel options

Trend - For people with disabilities like mobility issues or visual and hearing impairments, traveling can be a difficult task. Whether for necessity or recreation, people with disabilities are increasingly pushing for more accessible travel options and some businesses are responding with everything from travel information apps to transport designs that prioritize accessibility.

Insight - Accessibility is becoming a bigger focus for brands as consumers with different needs have more platforms to advocate for inclusion. The expectation for businesses and institutions to prioritize accessibility is growing as they recognize that they can be catering to a wider range of demographics, instead of a limited few.
Workshop Question - How could your brand better prioritize accessibility for its employees and/or customers?
Trend Themes
1. Growing Focus on Accessibility - As consumers with different needs have more platforms to advocate for inclusion, accessibility is becoming a bigger focus for brands, creating an opportunity for inclusive and innovative designs and solutions.
2. Use of Innovative Technology - Businesses are leveraging innovative technologies, such as sign language and mobile apps, to create more accessible solutions for people with disabilities, signaling an opportunity for tech-driven inclusive designs.
3. Partnerships for Mobility Technology - Companies are partnering with mobility technology providers to make travel and event spaces more accessible, indicating an opportunity for shared-value collaborations for innovative inclusive designs.
Industry Implications
1. Travel and Hospitality - With increasing need for accessible travel options, travel and hospitality businesses have an opportunity to create innovative designs that cater to travelers with different needs.
2. Technology - There is a growing need for innovative technologies that can cater to different accessibility needs. Tech companies can innovate and create solutions to cater to the needs of the differently-abled.
3. Assistive Technology - As businesses prioritize accessibility, there is an opportunity for assistive technology companies to create designs and solutions that can complement and increase the number of accessible options for people with disabilities.
