Expedia Group has released “Decoding the Travel Advisor Client,” a research report uncovering why Indian travelers turn to travel advisors and what builds lasting client relationships.
Conducted with Wakefield Research, the study highlights emerging traveler trends and equips advisors with strategies to attract and retain clients while driving business growth in 2025.
Key findings reveal:
