What is the average age of travelers?

Okay, so the average traveler age is 47, huh? Wow, that’s actually a bit older than I would’ve guessed! I mean, it kinda makes sense when you think about it. Traveling, especially the kind where you really explore, often takes some serious resources, right? And folks around that age are usually more established in their careers, maybe the kids are a little older, so they’ve got the time and the, ahem, disposable income to finally scratch that travel itch.

But get this – apparently, like 20% of travelers are over 65! Isn’t that just fantastic? Go, adventurous seniors! My grandma, bless her heart, always said she wanted to see the world, but never really got the chance. Makes you want to encourage everyone you know to just go while they can.

And then you’ve got the 35-54 age group, which is also a good chunk of the traveler pie. That’s cool, because it shows travel isn’t just a young person’s game or something you wait for retirement to do. It’s more like… a lifelong love affair with the world, isn’t it? I remember when I was in that age bracket, juggling work and kids, but still managing to squeeze in those little weekend getaways. Even a quick trip to the coast felt like a total reset! So yeah, 47… interesting! Makes you think about your own travel plans, doesn’t it? Where should I go next, I wonder…?
