Mobile technology is the key disruptive influence in the travel industry. The possibilities it affords and the demands it is creating are challenging every aspect of the travel journey. There is now an expectation for instantaneous information that can be accessed by consumers whenever they desire it through the mobile web and apps. In order to deliver this experience travel brands need to conduct an enormous amount of work behind the scenes. Building, optimizing and maintaining a mobile strategy can quickly become a costly exercise. However, few, if any, brands can operate without mobile web or native apps if they do want to win the customer’s booking. The Mobile in Travel Report Series seeks to give travel brands all the tools they need to succeed in this sphere, from understanding consumer trends to the nuts bolts of app construction. This report series will allow you to comprehensively understand mobile in travel through: The current state of the m-commerce in travel. Mobile search and purchase behaviors. A complete understanding of mobile web and native apps and their inherent advantages. Answering whether mobile web or native apps are more important. Investment strategies. Mobile website construction. The cost of app development and how to build successful apps. Driving app downloads and keeping apps on users’ phones.
