Jacob Palmer, senior director of content operations for BestReviews, says this is a huge opportunity for those in the travel industry to capture shoppers’ attention.
“It’s really just an opportunity to get and find deals for people that are looking for experiences — they aren’t looking for retail things,” Palmer said on “Morning in America.” “This is travel retailers’ way to get a piece of that opportunity and grab the share of that growing pie.”
