New Trends in Travel


Pet Friendly Getaways Weigh In

Twelve million pets, mostly dogs, will be joining their parents and travelling this holiday season. As animals adapt to roles as more of children than domesticated pets, their function in the family unit changes, one of those changes means making the holiday travel trek with the rest of the fam.

The changing dimension of these furry friends in our lives requires otherwise specifically human services to now cater to the whole family. A principle the travel and hospitality industry knows all too well; pet friendly vacation rentals and lodgings have increased 28% in the last three years to accommodate our growing needs.
