Trends in Group Travel: Spring 2015 Edition
Introduction
At Travefy our mission is to bring people joy in the way they plan, experience, and remember their trips together.
Beyond our travel planning tools we constantly seek out user insights and broader travel trends to help guide
innovation to meet the needs of current and future Travefy users. While much of this feedback and insight loop is
qualitative, we also look for and analyze industry and internal data. As data lovers ourselves, we wanted to share
this rich  and sanitized  report with the broader travel community.
From a sample of over 97,000 Travefy users and data on both places visited and trip costs, the insights are
fascinating. Weve also taken a deeper look at the bachelor and bachelorette party segment.
Some findings are unsurprising  like the fact that 18% of bachelorette parties and 20% of bachelor parties
travelled to Las Vegas or that New York City is the top visited city. Others exhibit an innate user bias, like the fact
that 60% of all user added places are in the U.S. (Travefy is a U.S. based company).
Other findings, however, are downright captivating. For instance, weve uncovered the average Travefy
bachelorette party cost (not including flight) is $244 per person.
All taken together, weve found this deep dive interesting and hope you do too!
Safe travels,
The Travefy Team
