LONDON, April 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Synopsis
Luxury tourism has become a fast-growing industry, as an increasing number of UHNWIs are spending wealth on vacations. In the US alone, the wealthiest 5% spend US$3,115 per person per vacation, totalling more than US$390 billion a year, according to the 2016 US Luxury Travel Report by international travel and tourism consultancy Resonance.

At the same time, there is heightened demand for experiences: rest and relaxation are not the only objective of luxury holidays. UHNWIs are increasingly looking to broaden their cultural horizons, get involved in local activities and learn something new or unique.

The key question is how to tailor service offerings to match UHNWIs' leisure and interests on holidays.
