PR for the luxury travel industry
Travel is a commodity many people don’t mind spending large amounts of money on.
It’s reported luxury consumers spend over six times as much on travel than the average consumer – and the trend is growing.
With more luxury consumers shifting from spending money on personal items to travel and life experiences, which is even more prevalent after COVID-19. More people, now more than ever, are itching to get away.
So, how do you thrive in a loud market? By driving awareness, demand, and sales for your hero products through bespoke campaigns.

Our approach
Reaching New Travel Audiences through PR campaigns
By targeting media outlets with press releases that are relevant to the travel industry, we can achieve coverage on a global scale for your luxury travel brand. Through PR communications we can target holidays at specific travel audiences such as couples, families, or avid adventurer goer.
By understanding what your audience interacts with, their likes and dislikes, we use this data to shape our public relations strategies to urge prospects to book their next holiday destination with your business.
By creating reactive, proactive, and planned digital PR campaigns, we’re able to achieve backlinks – increasing your market share of the organic market and boosting overall visibility.
Social Media To Power Your Brand Story
What sets you apart from your competitor is the experience you offer.
Whether it’s a luxury property in the Maldives or a festive season city break to Eastern Europe, social media is a great way to showcase experiences through immersive visuals and clever messaging to bring customers absolute joy.
And through our bespoke Social 360 Tool, we can truly understand what consumers are saying about your experience through social listening and competitor analysis. From this, we can make recommendations about your products and create a comprehensive content strategy to give you an added luxury touch over your competitors.
Paid Social Advertising To Lure Luxury Consumers
Paid social media supports your organic social efforts to spread awareness to a more exclusive audience.
This is incredibly useful for luxury travel brands, as it results in more sessions, leads, and conversions to achieve global impact.
The main benefit of paid ads for travel brands is their targeting capabilities, such as being shown to certain demographics, times, or a specific country. Putting your popular destination on their map.
Using Influencers As Travel Brand Ambassadors
Influencer marketing is a great way of building brand credibility, following, and reach. Influencers are seen as more credible than celebrities and create high-quality content that can be shared across your brand activity. They can be used to advocate every stage of the journey; from signing up, travelling, and their stay, to their final verdicts.
The key to our successful influencer marketing campaigns is picking a relationship that is a natural fit for your brand and resonates with your customer base through intensive influencer mapping.

What makes the luxury sector different from others?
One of the fundamental differences lies in the target audience of the luxury industry. Luxury brands cater to a specific demographic that values sophistication, exclusivity, and a sense of prestige. Unlike other industries that focus on mass appeal, luxury brands target a more affluent customer base who are willing to pay a premium for exceptional products or services.
