Race to reconnect; families booking Vrbo summer vacation homes earlier than ever

AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — According to the latest data from Vrbo®, a once-in-a-lifetime combination of factors is starting a summer vacation home booking spree.

AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — According to the latest data from Vrbo®, a once-in-a-lifetime combination of factors is starting a summer vacation home booking spree.

New Vrbo data shows combination of pandemic-influenced factors is causing an early surge in demand for vacation homes.

Travelers are locking in Vrbo properties in top summer destinations earlier in 2021 compared to the same time period in previous years. Currently, less than half of vacation homes in some top destinations are still available for July, a more than 25% increase in demand year-over-year [1].

Vrbo’s president, Jeff Hurst, points to a confluence of pandemic-influenced travel behaviors, sentiments and circumstances creating this rush, including:

  • Optimism around the vaccine: With the vaccine roll-out underway and health officials saying most people should be able to access the vaccine by late summer, families naturally want to make up for lost time and reconnect with loved ones again.
  • Planning double-cations: The growing confidence in being able to travel has led some families to already plan multiple trips this year. In fact, 44% of U.S. travelers say they will take more trips this year [2].
  • Booking longer stays: Families are planning longer trips as 39% of travelers say their next vacation will be at least a week [2] and 55% of families say they would spend more on longer stays [3]. These extended stays are filling up calendar availability and mean travelers may have fewer available dates and properties to choose from.
  • Keeping it domestic: With constantly changing restrictions on international travel, families are swapping their overseas plans with domestic trips. This is driving increased demand in U.S. destinations compared to previous years and further affects the number of available vacation homes in highly sought-after locales.
  • Flexcations going strong: Flexcations, a travel behavior that emerged in 2020 that blends work, school and family vacation time, are expected to continue in 2021. With many adults still working from home and employers announcing more flexible policies around remote work, families have the freedom to keep flexcationing. A survey conducted for Vrbo’s 2021 Trend Report shows that 67% who tried it last year would do it again [3].

«In years past, we’ve recommended that families book their summer vacations on Vrbo by late April to stay ahead of the curve, but this year, there are several reasons why families are eager and ready to book,» said Jeff Hurst, Vrbo president. «These signs are telling us that families should start looking for the perfect vacation home now before the selection and available dates become more limited.»

How Families Can Make Planning Easier

Vrbo now offers new tools to help families planning a longer trip find properties with discounts for extended stays of a week plus or a month plus. Many hosts already offer these discounts, and Vrbo has highlighted these properties with a discount banner. Later this month, travelers will also be able to use a new search filter to find properties with extended stay discounts.

Additionally, Vrbo will soon release a new polling feature for Trip Boards that makes it even easier for families to plan their summer trips. Trip Board polls will enable everyone in the family to participate in the decision-making process on where to stay so they can quickly book their favorite properties before someone else does.

Opting for Flexibility

Families booking far in advance for summer trips should review and understand a property’s cancellation policy before booking, and they can use the «Free Cancellation» filter to search for properties that offer more flexible cancellation policies. The most flexible option allows travelers to cancel their reservation up to 14 days before check-in for a full refund, and more than half a million Vrbo properties already offer flexible cancellation policies.

Families should also check their vacation destination’s travel advisories and restrictions before booking, and follow health and safety guidance from health officials and local authorities. Visit this help article for more information.

[1] Based on Vrbo vacation rental demand for July 131, 2020 as of December 31, 2019 vs. July 1-31, 2021 as of December 31, 2020.

[2] Based on a survey of 2,200 U.S. travelers in December 2020.

[3] Based on a survey of 1,000+ Vrbo travelers in the U.S. in October 2020.

BRANSON, Mo., Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Planning golf trips now is particularly appealing as players anticipate the more golfer-friendly weather of March and April, and Branson is an ideal choice for those who want to experience what many are calling the country’s most compelling golf destination.

The Missouri Ozarks oasis earns high praise through its 10 golf courses, all public access, all near one another, and including Tiger Woods’ first-ever public course design – Payne’s Valley, an 18-hole extravaganza with a stunning bonus 19th hole called «The Big Rock.» When one sees the towering, 300-million-years-old limestone formations that surround the green (as does water) – with waterfalls cascading down them no less – they’ll understand that this special extra hole came by its name honestly.

Add a variety of diverse yet complementary other playing options, wonderful restaurants and three lakes, and a plethora of other after-golf attractions, and it’s clear why Branson is a spring break destination for not only discerning golfers, but also everyone in the family.

«Explore Branson during spring break and you’ll leave having enjoyed what will surely be an unforgettable getaway,» said Lynn Berry, Branson CVB Communications Director. «Play great golf courses that are drawing global interest, then experience some of Branson’s many live shows, family attractions and other activities.»

When considering where to stay and play in Branson, start by learning all that Big Cedar Lodge offers. In addition to a spectrum of wonderful lodging styles and Payne’s Valley – Tiger’s new course, the 19th hole of which he collaborated on with Big Cedar Founder Johnny Morris – the renowned resort includes four other layouts:

Branson Hills Golf Club and the Hiltons at Branson (Hilton Branson Convention Center and Hilton Promenade at Branson Landing) combine to form another first-class stay and play option. Both hotels are located across the street from one another – Promenade on the waterfront at Branson Landing, Convention Center adjacent to historic downtown Branson. Branson Hills is a Chuck Smith-Bobby Clampett 18-hole course design, and it was voted one of the top 50 courses in the country in the Golf Pass/Golfers’ Choice awards this year.

Thousand Hills (Bob Cupp design), The Pointe, LedgeStone (Tom Clark design), and Holiday Hills complete Branson Golf’s roster of 10 courses, and each has earned appreciation for their playability and value. Thousand Hills has a variety of lodging options, from condos to upscale cabins, and Holiday Hills Golf Resort is a Holiday Inn Vacations Club property that is open to the public.

Global Automotive Technology Report 2020 – Supply Chain to CASE Will Unwind New Revenue Models by Leveraging Secured Solutions

DUBLIN, Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The «Blockchain Use Cases and Business Models Transforming the Automotive Industry» report…

DUBLIN, Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The «Blockchain Use Cases and Business Models Transforming the Automotive Industry» report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

Research and Markets Logo

The aim of this research study is to give an overview of blockchain solutions, key use cases, and applications adopted in the automotive industry.

The study focuses on the strategies that original equipment manufacturers adopt, the business models they use, key vendors, and core features. In the connected, autonomous, shared, and electric (CASE) era, blockchain scalability that does not compromise security is a key challenge preventing its widespread adoption in the automotive industry.

Blockchain-based start-ups and global companies were primarily focusing on proofs of Concept and projects in the financial sector. The publisher’s analysis indicates that blockchain technology will reshape the insurance, automotive, healthcare, and logistics industries with innovative projects by 2025.

Technology companies and start-ups focusing on blockchain technology are building the infrastructure to advance the complex implications of the technology: industrial applications, smart cities, data markets, fintech, banking, information privacy, encrypted communications, gaming, and supply chain.

The automotive industry will pilot parts traceability, supply chain visibility, contract management, in-vehicle payments, ownership/identity management, and data monetization blockchain projects by 2022.

Considering data monetization, automotive companies should lay down aggressive roadmaps for the development of futuristic data management strategies (including what level of data needs to be collected, how data labeling will happen, and what the level of scaling in future will be) and accordingly set up an ecosystem for storage, processing, and service delivery.

Automotive firms can leverage deeper insights from generated data and create compelling use cases for connected and autonomous vehicles.

Tokenization will develop new business models across supply chains; rewards, asset maintenance, and data monetization are examples. The ability to reassess and revamp business models and align an organization with a service-oriented model will be a critical success factor.

Automotive Powertrain Cooling System Market: Increasing production of bigger engine vehicles drive growth

The production of bigger engine vehicles is increasing because downsized engines give rise to higher engine temperatures and lead to increased amounts of emissions. Bigger engines have higher value powertrain cooling systems that ensure absolute control over powertrain temperature. Downsized engines have a higher risk of being non-compliant with emission norms than bigger engine vehicles. For instance, Volkswagen, Renault, and General Motors have canceled the production of certain models of downsized engine vehicles in 2019 in favor of bigger engine vehicles. This factor will increase the growth of the market in focus over the forecast period.

As per Technavio, the high dependence on internal combustion engine vehicles will have a positive impact on the market and contribute to its growth significantly over the forecast period. This research report also analyzes other significant trends and market drivers that will influence market growth over 2021-2025.

Automotive Powertrain Cooling System Market: High dependence on internal combustion engine vehicles

Automotive powertrain cooling systems are mainly used in internal combustion engines as they produce massive amounts of heat, which needs an efficient cooling system to prevent overheating. Internal combustion engines are highly preferred, especially in emerging countries, as high prices of electric and hybrid vehicles drive the demand for gasoline-and diesel-engine vehicles. This is expected to drive the automotive powertrain cooling system market during the forecast period. Increased preference for road transport of freight is also driving the preference for commercial vehicles rather than electric and hybrid vehicles. Hence, increased dependence on internal combustion engines is assured to drive the automotive powertrain cooling system market during the forecast period.

«Increased preference for road transport of freight and increased dependence on internal combustion engines will further boost market growth during the forecast period», says a senior analyst at Technavio.

2021 Ram 1500 TRX

The new 2021 Ram 1500 TRX is the apex predator of the truck world and cements Ram Truck as North America’s off-road truck leader. Designed bolt by bolt to significantly outperform every other truck straight from the factory, the Ram 1500 TRX has been tested to handle the most punishing conditions with extreme durability. Class-leading, uncompromising performance in the harshest environments is achieved in part through the 702-horsepower supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI® V-8 engine. Stratospheric power delivers a new level of performance: 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds, the quarter mile in 12.9 seconds at 108 mph and a top speed of 118 mph. The 2021 Ram 1500 TRX has been rigorously tested to handle the most punishing conditions with extreme capability and durability on its way to being the quickest, fastest and most powerful mass-produced half-ton pickup truck in the world.

Ram 1500

The 2021 Ram 1500 is the no-compromise benchmark for durability, technology, efficiency, performance and convenience with features never before offered in a pickup. The Ram 1500 features up to 12,750 pounds of towing capability and 2,300 pounds of payload. The eTorque mild hybrid system delivers improved fuel efficiency in both V-6 (standard) and V-8 configurations. The Ram 1500 is America’s most powerful half-ton diesel pickup with 480 lb.-ft. of torque and is rated at an unsurpassed 33 mpg highway and delivers up to 1,000 miles of range on a single tank of fuel.

As a segment disrupter, the Uconnect 4C with a massive 12-inch touchscreen leads the segment in technology, featuring split-screen capability, 360-degree camera views, and exclusive content from SiriusXM with 360L and Personalized Stations Powered by Pandora. The 2021 Ram 1500 TRX is the first vehicle in the light-duty lineup to include the new Know & Go mobile app featuring an immersive experience for customers who want to learn more about their vehicles. Active safety and security systems include adaptive cruise control, Forward Collision Warning, Blind-spot Monitoring and Ready Alert Braking. Class-leading ride and handling are accomplished via a segment-exclusive link-coil rear suspension system with optional Active-level four-corner air suspension.

2021 Ram Heavy Duty

The Ram Heavy Duty blends extreme performance and towing capability with the segment’s most refinement and operator comfort features. The 2021 Ram Heavy Duty offers a towing capacity of 37,100 pounds and a payload capacity of 7,680 pounds. Driving it all, the pickup segment’s first 1,000 lb.-ft. of torque engine – the Cummins I-6 Turbo Diesel. The Ram Heavy Duty also sets benchmarks in comfort, luxury materials, innovation and technology extending well past any competitive offerings. Class-leading ride and handling are accomplished via a class-exclusive link-coil rear (2500) suspension system with optional rear air suspension (2500 and 3500). Giving maximum effort all day, every day with confidence, the Ram heavy-duty line of pickup trucks steps forward with the full force of modern capability.

Jeep Gladiator

The 2021 Jeep Gladiator, engineered from the ground up to be the most off-road capable Jeep truck ever, builds on a rich heritage of tough, dependable trucks with an unmatched combination of rugged utility, authentic Jeep design, open-air freedom, clever functionality and versatility. Powertrain options include a 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 with engine stop-start (ESS) and, new for 2021, the 3.0-liter EcoDiesel engine with ESS. Equipped with a versatile box, a body-on-frame design, front and rear five-link suspension system, solid axles and electronic lockers, Gladiator is one of the few midsize trucks to offer a six-speed manual transmission in addition to its available eight-speed automatic.

Chrysler Pacifica

The Chrysler brand continues to set the pace for the minivan segment with the new 2021 Chrysler Pacifica. The first-ever minivan to offer both gas and hybrid powertrains, Chrysler is elevating its minivan game to new levels, creating a new top-of-the-line Pinnacle model in the segment, offering all-wheel-drive (AWD) capability paired with Pacifica’s class-exclusive Stow ‘n Go seating, more standard safety features than any vehicle in the industry, new FamCAM interior camera, wireless charging, next-generation Uconnect 5 connectivity, an athletic new look, and loads more creature comforts and interior storage for the 2021 model year.

Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio

As the «halo» model in Alfa Romeo’s sedan lineup, the Giulia Quadrifoglio highlights Alfa Romeo’s exclusive motorsports expertise with a best-in-class, 505-horsepower, 2.9-liter twin-turbocharged V-6 engine, delivering an unsurpassed 3.8-second 0-60 mph time, as well as a Nürburgring lap time of 7:32, the fastest ever by a five-passenger production sedan. The Giulia Quadrifoglio, like the 2.0-liter 280-horespower Giulia Sprint and Giulia Ti models, embody Alfa Romeo’s «la meccanica delle emozioni» (the mechanics of emotion) spirit, bringing race-inspired performance with class-leading power, advanced technologies and seductive Italian style to the premium midsize sedan segment.

Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio

The 505-horsepower, all-wheel-drive Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio sets the benchmark for performance SUVs with a 0-60 mph time of only 3.6 seconds and a top speed of 176 mph. Updates for 2021 include available 21-inch wheels and vibrant new colors, including Rosso GTA (red) and Verde Montreal (green). Born from the world’s greatest driving road, the Stelvio Pass, the 2021 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio delivers performance, design and technology in an SUV that could only come from Italy. The Stelvio lineup, which includes the Stelvio Quadrifoglio and the 280-horsepower Stelvio Sprint and Stelvio Ti models, is a testament to Alfa Romeo’s unparalleled balance of engineering and emotion.

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — America’s Gateway to the South will be bright yellow, now that Spirit Airlines (NYSE: SAVE) is on the way. Today the airline announced plans to add Louisville—one of the fastest-growing cities in the country—to its route map with nonstop daily service to four cities. Spirit plans to inaugurate service from the Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport on Thursday, May 27, with flights to Fort Lauderdale (FLL), Orlando (MCO), Las Vegas (LAS) and SDF’s only nonstop flight to Los Angeles (LAX). Images and videos can be found here.

«It’s time to bring the best value in the sky to Louisville,» said John Kirby, Vice President of Network Planning for Spirit Airlines. «We can’t wait to welcome Guests from Kentucky into the Spirit family so they can enjoy our unbeatable combination of service, reliability, new planes and low fares when they take their next trip. Plus, we’ll get to introduce travelers to the Derby City’s mix of outdoor beauty, art and history, not to mention the bourbon.»

Spirit’s flight 502 will be the only nonstop service to Los Angeles from Louisville, removing intermediate stops on the way and making quick trips between the two cities easier than ever. The airline continues to seize that kind of growth opportunity as demand for air travel increases. Earlier this month, the carrier announced an accelerated delivery schedule for new Airbus aircraft joining Spirit’s Fit Fleet™, which is among the youngest in the industry.

«Today is a great day for the Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport,» said Dan Mann, Executive Director of the Louisville Regional Airport Authority. «Spirit is a great addition for the Louisville community and travelers across the region with their robust network and competitive fares. Spirit’s mission is ‘more go’ and we’re accomplishing that with today’s announcement – more options for more travelers to visit more destinations across the country and around the world. We welcome Spirit to SDF and look forward to a vibrant future.»

Fort Lauderdale, Las Vegas and Orlando are three of Spirit’s biggest cities, which means nonstop flights from SDF come with easy connections to nine additional destinations. Fort Lauderdale is also Spirit’s largest gateway to the Caribbean and Latin America, providing access to five countries.

«Beyond these very welcome new flights to key destinations, Spirit Airlines also brings a new network of connections to our city, which is great for attracting businesses and new visitors,» said Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer. «And given our city’s role as the home of Bourbonism, it’s only fitting that Spirit would land here! Welcome, Spirit Airlines!»

2021 is off to a great start at Spirit Airlines. In January, the carrier launched its new Free Spirit® loyalty program, which is the fastest way to earn rewards and status.* Spirit is also one of only three U.S. airlines listed on FORTUNE’s 2021 list of World’s Most Admired® Companies, which measures companies with the strongest reputation within their industries. Spirit also earned «Platinum» status as the highest-rated low-fare carrier in the world for cleanliness and safety during the travel journey by the Airline Passenger Experience Association (APEX) Health Safety initiative powered by SimpliFlying.

Guest Safety   
Spirit’s commitment to Safe Travels includes a multi-layered safety approach that requires all Guests and Team Members to wear face coverings. Each passenger agrees to that policy as part of a health and safety acknowledgement prior to boarding the aircraft. Every plane in our Fit Fleet® uses state-of-the-art, high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters that capture 99.97% of particles and filter the air for contaminants every 3 minutes.

Between each flight, enhanced cleaning procedures focus on high-touch areas such as tray tables and armrests. Spirit also uses two EPA-registered fogging treatments. The first applies a safe, high-grade disinfectant that’s effective against coronaviruses. The second uses an antimicrobial product that forms an invisible barrier on all surfaces that kills bacteria and viruses on contact for 30 days. Please visit Spirit’s COVID-19 Information Center for more information on safety enhancements.
