An analysis carried out by travel agent Skycanner shows that significantly more Germans are using the “All Locations” option when searching this year. This shows all the options sorted by the cheapest price.

A whopping 85 percent of travelers are interested in visiting new places this year, but 17 percent of respondents are struggling to discover new destinations. Some travelers (16 percent) feel overwhelmed by the idea of ​​booking travel in 2024. More than half (55 percent) of these respondents are worried about the costs, while others have difficulty deciding on a date (36 percent) or a travel destination (31 percent). The majority of German travelers estimate that their flight (round trip) will cost over 2024 euros per person in 500. However, the “All Locations” search on Skyscanner shows significantly cheaper prices for the summer: For example, from Berlin to Naples (Italy) in June for 63 euros, from Stuttgart to Barcelona (Spain) in July for 62 euros or from Düsseldorf to Cagliari (Sardinia, Italy) in August for 86 euros. Bored with conventional tourist hotspots, 87 percent of those surveyed think that algorithms keep recommending the same travel destinations. In contrast, 68 percent confirm that they have more trust in the advice of experienced travelers who have extensively explored the country themselves.
