Revealing The Latest Luxury Travel Trends in 2014 with Carrier

29/08/14 ᛫ Add a Comment

As a luxury travel fanatic, I am fascinated to hear about the ever-changing trends in the industry. Where are people going? Why are they going there? Luxury travel can mean very different things depending on the demographic you’re talking to.  Reasons to travel and destinations themselves can vary so differently between the different demographics, and it’s so interesting to learn why.  So when I stumbled across this really cool infographic from Carrier, I hit the jackpot.

The most fascinating thing to me about this infographic was that the most adventurous demographic in terms of travel destinations seem to be the ’empty nesters’ Singapore, Borneo and Indonesia coming up as their top destinations. I am interpreting ’empty nesters’ as a middle-aged couple whose children have all grown up and left home. Perhaps when a couple’s brood finally ‘fly the nest’ they are left with a new sense of adventure and crave to see more of the world (without the moaning teenagers!). Makes total sense really. It also seemed pretty apt that ‘young couples’ are choosing The Caribbean as their top destination, where I am jetting off to next week with my boyfriend!

As part of the ‘Inspirations’ campaign, Carrier has also developed an innovative image-based search which recommends the perfect destination mood board based on travel dates, the reason for the holiday and preferred hotel style and ambience. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to check out my results and view the main info graphic here

My Dream Destinations Moodboard Results

I feel like a totally relaxing and exotic luxury getaway right now, so destinations like Bali, Indonesia and Mauritius came up on my results page. These are all destinations I am dying to go to, so I have to say the search was pretty spot on! Don’t forget to create your own mood board here, but be warned, it will cause a serious case of wanderlust!

Here's a screenshot of my results page. Looks dreamy right?

    I grew up in Mauritius and will be heading there in November for two months. It’s my favourite place in the world 🙂

Hello 2023! 🤍 A clean page, a fresh start. I h Hello 2023! 🤍 A clean page, a fresh start.

I had too many words about 2022 for a caption, so I’ve put them all into a blog post. 

My “2022 year in review” is live on The Travelista. It’s a longer, personal blog post about lessons, learnings, achievements and travels from year just gone, as well as my hopes and goals for 2023. I’ve put a link on stories for anyone interested. 😊

Wishing you a healthy, happy, adventure-filled New Year ✨

17 destinations across 9 countries. My son stepped foot in 3 new countries and I got to bring him on 6 trips with me, including his first cruise. Wow ♥️

I’m finding a new rhythm for travelling with (and sometimes without) a little one and can’t wait for what’s to come in 2023.

Whether you’re new here or you’ve followed my journey for years, thank you so much for being here, for every like, comment and share. It is this amazing, supportive and loyal community that has enabled me to quit my job this year and return to doing this full time again post Covid. 

What was the most memorable place you’ve visited in 2022? ♥️

Merry Christmas from my family to yours ♥️.
Before I sign off for a little Christmas social me Before I sign off for a little Christmas social media break, here’s a festive photo dump of the past week + sharing my favourite poem🕯🎄🥂

Featuring 

➕ A lunch to @bettys with the girls. Making a new tradition. 
➕ A family visit to @castle_howard for their spectacular #IntotheWoods Christmas experience. Phenomenal. We go every year and it just gets better and better.
➕ Carols by candlelight at our local church - magic - but so many layers because the heating was broken!
➕ Dust if you Must by Rose Milligan. The perfect tonic in the (potentially stressful) build up to Christmas. 

We are hosting family this year and I’m excited! I’d love my house to look like a festive show home but it doesn’t, and that’s ok. (I have a 4 year old making mess twice as fast as I can tidy it). 

Fellow hosts, don’t be so busy ‘dusting’ that you miss all the little moments of magic! I’m reminding myself of this too. Swipe to read the poem and you’ll get it. ♥️

Wishing you a perfectly imperfect Christmas 🎄 

Love Jess x

We are all feeling the pinch this year with the rising cost of living, so I set myself a challenge to find gifts for under £30. By shopping at outlets like Junction 32, which has over 80 brands offering up to 60% off the retail price, your money truly does go so much further. ♥️

What gifts I bought;

✔️ Slippers from @radleylondon RRP £40 J32 Price £20
✔️Himalayam charcoal gift set from @thebodyshop RRP £36.00 J32 Price £29.50
✔️Wax cheese wheels from independent retailer @themousehouse_lincoln £3 for £16
✔️Children’s cutlery set from @procookuk RRP £10 J32 Price £7

As usual J32 had some brilliant items on offer and a huge amount of choice, even this far into December.

Have you got any last minute Christmas shopping to do? I think I am finally done! 🛍
