Clearcover Survey Reveals Key 2022 Winter Holiday Travel Trends

The innovative insurtech reports that a majority of respondents are planning to drive rather than fly this year, and they're bringing their pets along

CHICAGO, Dec. 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- With the winter holidays around the corner, Clearcover, Inc., the next-generation car insurance company, recently conducted a survey* to forecast this season's travel trends.

The company's report discovered who, why and how people are planning to travel this time of year and unwrapped some interesting key findings:

More people are likely to travel this holiday season (2022) compared to last year.
Based on the survey data, Clearcover reports that 60% of respondents noted they will or are likely to travel for the 2022 winter holidays compared to just 37% of those who traveled last year.

A majority of respondents indicated that they are planning to hit the roads rather than the runway.
Of those surveyed, 69.1% said they will likely drive rather than fly.

Fido and Fluffy are buckling up for the ride.
Nearly half (43%) of respondents that are likely to travel this year reported that they are planning to take their pets along with them.

COVID-19 is no longer top-of-mind.
Only 10.1% of respondents not likely to travel this year reported COVID-19 and other health and safety issues as the reason. This is a dramatic downturn from last year where 34.5% of respondents who chose not to travel last year cited the coronavirus as their primary reason for staying home.

Who is traveling and why?
The majority (74%) of those planning to travel this year are millennials (ages 25-44), and cited 'visiting friends and family' as their primary motivation to travel.

'Tis the season of spending.
The survey results show that despite 63.5% of respondents citing cost as a main consideration when determining their holiday travel, the majority of those traveling again this year plan to spend the same amount, if not more, than they did traveling in 2021.
