Benoit Racle (Accor): Tapping the Next Generation Traveler & Luxury's $1 Trillion Wellness Trend

Benoit Racle (Accor): Tapping the Next Generation Traveler & Luxury's $1 Trillion Wellness Trend Accor representative about the strategy behind the Pullman brand, which has always been about merging two worlds (from the first sleeping car to today's unexpected pairings). The discussion covers the future of luxury hospitality, evolving traveler demands, and how to engage the newest generation. - Merging Worlds: Pullman aims to blend seemingly opposite concepts. For business/MICE travelers, the hotel is not just a place to work, but a place of exchange that provokes new stimuli, encouraging guests to connect with something bigger than themselves. - Luxury Market Growth: The luxury and premium sector is expected to grow. By 2030, 1 billion more people will be able to afford upscale accommodation and travel. The current trend shows guests want to travel less but travel better, with a purpose in mind. - The New Generation Traveler: Young travelers live across countries and borders and seek authentic moments of exchange. They require brands that can tailor to their mood—switching instantly from "business mode" (focus) to a moment that is "totally different" (contrast and vibrancy). - Employee Strategy: To attract new generations of associates ("artists"), Pullman is committed to allowing them to "come with who you are" to create connections that go beyond a regular working relationship with the customer.
