Imagine a traveler browsing flights on their phone, researching hotels on a laptop, and even adding a stay to their cart — only to abandon it. Moving between devices and taking time to decide, they often remain anonymous to brands. With up to 95% of website traffic unidentified, travel companies are missing a massive opportunity to re-engage potential customers through personalized experiences and drive direct bookings.
As digital engagement grows more complex — spanning multiple devices, extended consideration periods, and shifting traveler expectations — marketers must rethink their approach to identity resolution, booking intent, and re-engagement strategies.
While AI-driven personalization and first-party data strategies offer game-changing solutions, many travel brands still struggle to effectively connect the dots between anonymous traffic, abandoned bookings, and long-term customer retention.
In this upcoming webinar, industry experts will join Skift to discuss how identity resolution is transforming travel marketing and share real-world insights on re-engagement strategies that drive direct bookings, loyalty, and revenue growth.
The shift toward a data-first, traveler-centric approach won’t happen overnight, but the time to act is now. Learn how travel brands can stay ahead by leveraging advanced identity solutions to drive measurable business impact.
