You’ll Take More Trips
The ability to travel will affect your own experiences on the road. People intent on fitting work into their journeys will travel twice as often as those who want time to unplug. 75% will add extra time to their vacation.
When you can work from anywhere, you can go to many other places for leisure travel. You can organise your work around your family instead of your family around your job. This benefits hotels and destinations as there are fewer peak periods.

Home rentals have the upper hand for laptop luggers. Companies like Landing charge users to access a global portfolio of monthlong rental options. Hotels are creating a membership program that provides fixed nightly rates and food discounts when digital nomads commit to a month-long stay. Other hotels are fitting out indoor-outdoor workstations.

You May Not Get as Much R&R
A possible downside of blended travel is that people will not truly disconnect. The pressure of being always on may follow us wherever we find ourselves.
Getting a reservation whenever you want is also more difficult as the demand is so high.
