Despite strong digital traffic, most travel brands struggle to convert lookers into bookers—nearly 97% of visitors leave without booking, often due to missed opportunities in recognizing and engaging travelers at key moments. These gaps—anonymous visitors, untimely or generic messaging, static offers, lack of follow-up after abandonment, and inconsistent experiences across devices—quietly erode conversion rates and drive revenue to OTAs.

Drawing on the latest industry research, case studies, and practical strategies, this session will equip travel leaders with actionable insights to bridge these gaps.

Agenda:

• ◎ The inability to identify and re-engage anonymous visitors across sessions and devices.
• ◎ Missed moments of high intent due to delayed or generic messaging, rather than leveraging real-time behavioral signals for personalized outreach.
• ◎ Static, one-size-fits-all offers that fail to motivate engagement, as opposed to dynamic value exchanges like loyalty points or exclusive content.
• ◎ Limited recovery of abandoned bookings, with most brands only retargeting known users and missing the chance to re-engage all high-intent visitors.
• ◎ Disjointed messaging across mobile, desktop, email, and SMS, which erodes trust and disrupts the guest experience.
