Travel 2.0 is almost at its peak and from the horizon Travel 3.0 is appearing.We keep on reading or hearing a lot about Travel 3.0. So what exactly is it?
Travel 3.0, it will be a tool, where the user can get the holistic experience. Any traveler goes to 3 different phases:
1. Planning: A stage where he is looking for information, researching a destination and the fares etc. Which most of the website have been able to do. There are millions of websites which offers destination guides.
2. Bookings: The next logical step is to book a ticket, a hotel room, a taxi and perhaps look for a local guide? Though most of the websites offer first three booking, they still lack in finding a local guide or a language interpretor.
3.Post Travel Experience: A traveler normally clicks a lot of pictures, and sometimes it becomes difficult to store it. A travel 3.0 website would also offer this to travelers.
While there are websites which offers everything in bits and pieces, no one really offers everything integrated into one and offer it to customers. A user end up having gone to three different website for three different but entirely interlinked need.
Travel 3.0 would be a phase where all the above three phases would be integrated seamlessly to give the user a single window for his/her entire travel need.
Travel 3.0 will be all of sales, peer reviews and social networking
