A recent study found that 70% of Americans make unplanned purchases at the airport.
The study from CardRates also revealed one in four travelers cited stress as leading them to make more impulse purchases. Additionally, more than a third (36%) bring food to avoid having to buy food at the airport.
How much money are Americans spending each time they fly? About $135, according to respondents.
Most travelers (66%) believe spending money at the airport before flying is part of the overall travel experience.
Sightseers’ Delight started publishing in June 2016. The site, published by The DeFeo Groupe, collects and curates content about places where historical events large and small happened. The site builds off the legacy of The Travel Trolley, which launched in June 2009. The site aimed to be a virtual version of the trolley tours offered in so many cities.
