We shall now see the different reasons of people’s travels and their views regarding travelling. First, there are considerably different views on travel among people of different ages. Although all age groups find travelling as being one of the most rewarding and enjoyable things one can do, the older age group (+55) does not find the idea as appealing as before. The people of the younger age show greater willingness to travel. However, people of all ages would prefer to have short weekend trips organized inland or in nearby countries in order to get away during most weekends.

Another age group of frequent travellers are those who have to get trips on business. The largest group of such travellers belongs to the middle- aged businesses. Old businesses would prefer to arrange their business issues through the telephone or through video conferencing.

Another reason of people travelling is the need to get away from everything. Here again younger people are more likely to leave their homes because the feel the need to get away from everything. The two-thirds of older people would prefer to leave their homes only if there is the real need of it (such as business, some event or holidays).

Although apparently the younger age group (18-34) seems to slightly outweigh the age group of 35-54 in their various travelling preferences, the income of the older people is much higher than the income of the young age group of 18-34. The most successful age group is middle-aged people who still feel travel is exciting and enjoyable and are able to pay for it.
