As many as 48% of readers in ongoing surveys and focus groups reported having a very poor understanding of travel brands today (38% were not really sure) following the mega-mergers and new line rollouts. This year\u2019s votes saw a surge in interest from long-haul regions, including the USA, Australia, and the UK, as well as from regional hubs such as Singapore, India, China, Malaysia, and Thailand. As outbound travel increases again, this was where the search for brand clarity was most keen, judging from the queries received.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WARS, HERITAGE, FAMILY:<\/strong> The continued instability in the Middle East has impacted several prominent airlines, airports, and destinations in the region. Thailand lost some votes as the Cambodia border crisis brewed, but saw a late surge to recover. Japan, too, saw a brief dip in travel from Hong Kong in early July as manga comic Big Quake predictions spread, causing flight cancellations from Hong Kong; however, both Tokyo and Kyoto ultimately attracted the votes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Growing interest in culture and heritage has enabled some smaller destinations to maintain their Top 10 rankings despite intense competition. And the surge in demand for fun family hotels boosted a surprising new category of accommodation \u2014 casino hotels (with Marina Bay Sands, MGM COTAI, MGM MACAU, Wynn Macau, OKADA Manila and Hyatt City of Dreams Manila emerging on the Top 10 Lists).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>GENERATIONAL SPLIT: <\/strong>&nbsp;What travellers want in 2025 is service and experience \u2014 some of this is a response to over-automation. The \u2018Best Hotel Service\u2019 category was added in 2024. Interestingly, the highest awardees here are not always luxury properties. Some are older classics or unknowns. Younger travellers welcomed contactless innovation and design minimalism (their offbeat experimentation offering some delightful finds). Still, older baby boomers and Gen-Xers pushed back against any loss of \u2018touch points\u2019, favouring traditional spots with familiar faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>TRIPS AND EARNINGS DIP:<\/strong> Readers on average took 12 air trips (down from 16) in the past year (with 12% taking 31-40 air trips and 3% over 50 trips). They earned an average USD152,000 per annum (household income; down from USD172,000 in 2024).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ENGAGEMENT RISES:<\/strong> Key interests were broadly similar to those in 2024, but were pursued more actively \u2014 dining and nightlife (74%); culture, heritage, and history (69%); shopping (69%); spas and wellness (68%); and adventure and nature (58%). These were followed by child-friendly resorts (58%); conferences and meetings (46%); resort weddings (36%); golf (24%); casinos (23%); cruises (21%); and diving (15%).<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"288\" height=\"542\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ttrweekly.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/6-19.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-255736 lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 288px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 288\/542;width:336px;height:auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ttrweekly.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/6-19.jpg 288w, https:\/\/www.ttrweekly.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/6-19-159x300.jpg 159w, https:\/\/www.ttrweekly.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/6-19-223x420.jpg 223w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 288px) 100vw, 288px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The 2025 Best in Travel Poll for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smarttravelasia.com\/\">SmartTravelAsia.com<\/a> readers (June to late August) will be released on Monday, 1 September.
