With this, the process for travel booking has experienced a significant shift from physical to web bookings, and now mobile platforms. Online tour agencies have integrated all modes of transport and accommodation options under a single platform which has encouraged users to opt the same. Additionally, service providers and tour operators have adopted digitalization and automation to develop greater productivity and offer customers a unique travel experience. Social media platforms have emerged as a major influencer and an effective marketing platform for online tour agencies. Travelers use social media platforms to share their travel experience and post their reviews, helping other customers to choose travel agencies according to their requirements.

This trend is expected to increase with the introduction of more social media platforms. A majority of travelers rely on online reviews and comments of other users before booking hotels or making reservations in restaurants. As a result, hotels and restaurants continuously try to improve their services based on the reviews. Hotels also have social media teams for promoting their brand through various social media platforms.  These teams read, review, and analyze bookings in order to identify trends that can help them attract new customer base while retaining old customers. Thus, social media platforms help online travel agencies to market their services and bring transparency and ease to the entire process.

Moreover, the influx of big data and other complementing technologies such as automation and augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR) is expected to create opportunities for travel agencies. By incorporating these technologies in their existing platforms and applications they can deliver a better user experience. However, there exists no centralized system that can streamline data between government agencies and private travel agencies thus, creating a gap between them. This, in turn, can hamper the growth of the global online travel market.
