"The ability to work remotely is a major leg up when planning out itineraries. About 49% of employed travelers are 'laptop luggers' who intend to work during their holiday vacation...This flexibility allows workers to take trips they might not otherwise, or stretch their trips for longer."
"The change in laptop luggers is 'a pretty high jump. It's almost across all income levels and age groups,' said Eileen Crowley, vice chair and U.S. transportation, hospitality and services attest leader at Deloitte."
"Since the pandemic, remote work has become a priority for job seekers, said Julia Pollak, chief economist at ZipRecruiter. In the third quarter, 51% of surveyed job seekers said the ability to work from wherever they want is a top reason for remote jobs."
"People are willing to find workarounds like driving instead of flying or cutting back on other expenses to make their holiday travels feasible while maintaining their work commitments."
