Revenue in the Travel Agencies industry is expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 12.3% over the five years through 2025 to €121.5 billion. The focus of the travel industry in the last five years has been recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic. Travel demand plunged during 2020 and 2021, when COVID-19 outbreak grounded flights and confined people to their homes. While domestic travel could continue in some countries, most travel agencies had no trips to sell. Since restrictions were lifted across Europe and globally (which happened at each country’s own pace), the travel sector has seen a resurgence in demand by trends characterised as revenge travel and responsible travel. People made up for lost time by taking more trips after COVID-19 restrictions had been lifted. In 2024 and 2025, consumers are still keen for trips but want value-for-money adventures instead as they’re cautious of their spending amid disposable income squeezes. International travel to Europe has also resurged, especially from the US, thanks to the more favourable dollar-to-Europe rate – a welcome trend for agencies. There’s concerns that President Trump’s administration and US tariffs could see a drop in US visitors, but in early 2025 numbers have been strong. Pent-up demand combined with savings built up during COVID-19 has kept bookings high, defying high inflation across Europe that would usually signal lower trip spending. Travel remains a high priority for many households, driving up bookings. As a result, revenue is expected to mount by 4.4% in 2025. That being said, the Russia-Ukraine war has plagued tourism in Eastern Europe, with countries like Finland and the Baltic states continuing to record much lower tourist numbers than pre-pandemic because of fewer Russian tourists and lower travel confidence to the region. Revenue is anticipated to climb at a compound annual rate of 8.9% in the five years through 2030 to €186.3 billion. Online travel agencies will continue to cement their position in the industry, with most traditional agencies adapting by now or already closing. Climate change will disrupt travel agencies and the destination packages they offer. The last few years have already seen wildfires across Greece that spelt disaster for many trips and travel agencies will need to plan for the shift from southern European beaches to northern European destinations as temperatures rise. Travel agencies across Europe will also keep trying to carve out more of a niche by specialising in trips for certain age demographics.
