THE top holiday trends for 2025 include ‘Detour Destinations’, ‘JOMO Travel’ and the ‘Hotel Restaurant Renaissance’, according to Expedia Group.
The travel company believes travellers in the upcoming year will not only visit the tried-and-true tourist destinations – they’ll also be adding detours to their time away.
With Reims being the perfect stop off when travelling to Paris, and Brescia in Italy the perfect distance from Milan.
The Hotels.com arm of the travel group has also seen a rise in tourists looking for ‘standout dining experiences’, seeing a 40 per cent year-on-year increase in positive reviews about hotel restaurants.
While travellers are taking advantage of hotels around the world opening critically-acclaimed restaurants featuring Michelin-starred chefs and seasonal menus.
It comes after research of 25,000 respondents across 19 countries found young adults are bringing back the all-inclusive.
With the new wave of these types of hotels offering margarita minibars and foam parties on-site and wellness activities to attract Gen Z travellers looking for stress-free stays and a good deal.
And as many as 43 per cent claim an all-encompassing resort would be their preferred holiday type.
The report also found FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) is a thing of the past, with most opting for JOMO (Joy of Missing Out) travel instead.
This leads to travellers doing less on holiday to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life, instead staying at cosy cabins or peaceful beach houses, according to Vrbo.
A spokesperson for the travel company, which released the trends as part of its ‘Unpack ’25’ report, said: “We aim to continuously work to blend technology with travel, making journeys simpler and more enjoyable.
“The Unpack report is our opportunity to reflect on what travellers are seeking and how our partners are innovating.”
“From this year’s trends, I’m eager to book a One-Click Trip and visit some Detour Destinations for my next holiday.”
Another trend identified by Expedia is the ‘Goods Getaway’, which sees travellers heading far afield for specific purchases.
Driven by TikTok trends, these might see people tracking down a viral chocolate bar from Dubai, butter from France, skincare products from Korea or Japanese sweets.
Detour Destinations – visiting other hotspots near the main destination.
Goods Getaways – holidaying specifically to buy a viral product.
All Inclusive Eras – a rise in Gen Z looking for all-inclusive trips.
Hotel Restaurant Renaissance – travellers booking hotel restaurants more often.
JOMO Travel – doing less on holiday, and loving it.
The Phenomena-List – travelling to see natural wonders.
Set-Jetting – trips that take in famous sights from TV or movies.
One-Click Trips – shoppable travel storefronts curated by social media curators.
Meanwhile, the ‘Phenomena-List’, from Vrbo, highlights the best times of year to jet around the world to see some of the most incredible natural phenomena around the globe.
It recommends February and March for the Ballet of the Japanese Cranes, and July to September to see the incredible bioluminescent plankton at Vero Beach, Florida.
MANCHESTER UNITED boss Erik ten Hag is favourite to be the first Premier League manager sacked.
That’s according to bookmakers William Hill, who’ve priced the Dutchman at 4/5 to be relieved of his duties at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils are sat in 14th position heading into the international break.
They’ve collected eight points from a possible 21 while only promoted Southampton have scored fewer than their five league goals.
Ten Hag, 54, has overseen a total of 10 competitive matches in all competitions this season and has beaten only Fulham, Southampton and Barnsley.
United are now five without a win, but did at least show some resilience and defensive solidity during Sunday’s goalless draw against Aston Villa.
After the clash, in which co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe was in attendance, Ten Hag was asked if United’s hierarchy was fully behind him.
He said: “I don’t have any idea that is different because they should have told me. We communicate – very open, very transparent.
“I would say every day we talk, so I expect I will speak with them. We know what we are working through, it’s a long-term process.

“We have come through two very tough away games. This is a team, we showed the belief and faith we have.”
Gary O’Neil is next in the market at 11/4 following their 5-3 defeat to Brentford and having overseen their worst-ever start to a Premier League campaign.
Wolves remain winless after seven matches and are rock-bottom of the division with a single point and the highest number of goals conceded (21).
“It’s the worst game I’ve been involved in as a coach,” O’Neil told BBC. “It’s the furthest I’ve seen the group from what we wanted to look like. We were wide open. Crazy, crazy goals we gave away.”
Russell Martin follows at 3/1 after a similarly poor start to the season that’s seen Southampton lose six of their opening seven games.
