That makes it two novels in five months, and I must say that while I missed my original deadline in February, I am so excited to have this one finished.

Ten 2013 Travel Trends From TakingTheKids.com


Ten 2013 Travel Trends From TakingTheKids.comIn 2013, I resolved to do more family travel. I do a lot of traveling for business and for my website, but we seldom travel as a family unit. This year, I want to get my eight year old daughter more involved in my travels and I want to expose her to more places and parts of the country. For her birthday next month, we are traveling to Walt Disney World, and I hope this will be the first of many family trips we take this year.

I participated in the Family Travel Conference last November in Dallas and learned a wealth of information as it relates to family travel, tips, destinations, and more. TakingTheKids.com, one of the Family Travel Conference’s partners, recently released a list of their top 10 travel trends for 2013. The list is full of interesting tidbits that you may want to take in to consideration when planning your next trip.

Check out the list of TakingTheKids.com‘s 10 top travel trends for 2013 below:

1. Toddlers Rule the Travel Roost

Toddlers are seen as the key to building generations of repeat customers, especially since 37% of traveling grandparents have kids in tow.

2. Multigenerational Travel is Golden

Multigenerational travel has taken the lead in the family market; this well-funded and active group of seniors travels almost 25% more than the average leisure traveler.

3. Cruise Industry Evolves Faster for Family Market

More than 1.5 million children are cruising every year and, with 10 new ships slated for 2013, there will be more innovation in cruising than in any other segment of the family vacation market.

4. Health and Eating Equal Family Vacation Wellness

The average American family is so obsessed with food that parents are demanding kids’ menus with farm-to-table entrees and weight-reducing snacks.

5. Mobile Connects Families on the Go to Travel Plans

Moms are 38% more likely than the general public to own smartphones, communicating hundreds of times per week via email, texting and social media, with tablet usage close behind.

6. Moms Listen to Smart Mamas

Empowered, smart and in control, moms want to hear from other moms who travel through online content that is real, savvy and honest.

7. Celebrity Enters the Family Marketing Mix

Since 52% of travelers admit that social media research has influenced vacation plans, we anticipate that celebrity travels will also impact family vacation planners.

8. Parents demand Educational Value and Authenticity

Heritage and Culture are cited by 31% of teen travelers as the prime motivator of their travels, so we look for more educational and authentic travel experiences for all ages.

9. Travelers Want to Respect the Environment

After the weather-related environmental destruction of the past few months, we believe more families see value in traveling greener and paying for it.

10. Volunteering is Big Family Activity

Viewing natural disasters has become a tourist activity. With 11% of travelers saying they “travel to help others,” we think the voluntourism industry is about to take off.

What do you think about this list of trends?
