If we are starting to recover from postponed vacations and canceled flights, 2022 can be called the year of travel. As much as we love small weekend getaways, the long and fun moments we all dream of are returning.

From romantic honeymoons to cultural excursions and adventurous offbeat explorations, it's time to not just enjoy travel, but to truly celebrate it.

Where to start and how to plan a vacation? From vacationing like a local to embarking on unfamiliar adventures, discover the travel trends that will shape 2022.

1- Pack Your Bag Vacations

The last two years have seen radical changes in how or when we book our vacations. Uncertainty about travel restrictions and whether plans will go ahead has transformed early booking preferences into last-minute spur-of-the-moment bookings. Spontaneous travel, once the choice of only hippie souls, has made a swift entrance in 2022.

According to a study, people around the world are now taking last-minute trips with an average time between booking and travel of less than three days. What's more, 20 percent of all bookings are made within 24 hours. As such, all partners in the tourism sector, from hotels to tour companies, airlines to restaurants, offer different opportunities for last minute travelers.

2- Romantic Discoveries

We can say that the pandemic has also dealt a serious blow to dating life, as dates have turned into Victorian walks in the park instead of a romantic dinner.

As such, in addition to the thought of a holiday getaway, the fact that 20 percent of travelers expect to meet new people shows that 2022 will be the year of fun for travel lovers worldwide. We strongly recommend that you check out the most well-known apps of the countries you are going to visit in advance and catch the trend, especially when planning your trip abroad!

3- My Favorite Selfies

Whether it's meditating in India to shamanic music blasting from Spotify or a facial at one of London's most exclusive spas. In 2022, travel will be a hugely popular form of self-care, with travelers embarking on journeys to stimulate their senses. Healthy vacations aimed at boosting wellness will be a favorite of the next decade. For some this may mean a yoga retreat, an immune-boosting mini-break, for others a sports vacation.
