New Travel Trends: ”Last Chance Tourism” and ”Coolcationing” as Effects of Climate Change

What will travel look like in 2025? One thing is sure: the effects of climate change are becoming increasingly evident, significantly altering travel behaviors. More and more travelers are opting for cooler destinations (”Coolcationing”), while others seek to visit places at risk of disappearing (”Last-Chance Tourism”).

According to Safeture, the leading technology platform for travel risk management, and Riskline, a global expert in travel risk analysis and content provision, beyond climate-related changes, the most significant risks for business and leisure travelers in 2025 arise from geopolitical tensions and digital challenges. In their latest annual forecast, ”Foresight 2025,” these global specialists in professional travel risk management and analysis provide a comprehensive outlook.

New Barriers and Geopolitical Tensions
While visa regulations in Asia are being relaxed, opening up new growth opportunities, geopolitical tensions in other regions are creating additional challenges for travelers. The ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict and uncertainties in Europe will continue to affect flight routes in 2025. Travelers should prepare for unexpected route changes and extended flight times.

Stricter border controls are also expected in Europe. New systems such as the Schengen Entry/Exit System (EES) and the European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS) will increase administrative burdens for travelers. Meanwhile, persistent conflicts, such as those in Ukraine and on the Korean Peninsula, continue to exacerbate security risks.

Climate Change is Reshaping Travel Habits
The impact of climate change on the travel industry is profound. Increasing heatwaves, floods, and storms are influencing destination choices. The trend of ”Coolcationing,” traveling to cooler destinations, is gaining popularity alongside a growing interest in sustainable tourism. Another significant trend is ”Last-Chance Tourism,” where travelers aim to visit places threatened by irreversible climate damage. Domestic travel is also becoming a more environmentally friendly alternative to international trips.

Digitalization: More Convenience, But Also More Risks
The travel industry increasingly leverages digital technologies, such as biometric border controls and AI-driven travel planning. While these innovations enhance efficiency, they also introduce new cyber risks. IT outages and targeted cyberattacks have the potential to disrupt travel significantly.

The digital transformation of travel is revolutionizing the way we experience the world. However, it also introduces new challenges and risks. A thoughtful approach to technology and strong security measures are crucial to ensure traveler safety.

Health Risks Remain a Challenge
Health threats from emerging viruses such as Mpox and Marburg and climate-related diseases remain a significant concern in 2025. Climate change introduces new health risks in tropical regions, including water shortages and spreading diseases like cholera. Companies must continue to adapt their health strategies to ensure employee safety during business trips, even in crisis situations.

Conclusion: Adaptability and Resilience Are Key
The year 2025 will present significant challenges, demanding adaptability and proactive strategies. Leveraging professional systems with real-time global information enables companies and travel providers to respond swiftly and effectively to emerging travel risks, ensuring optimal protection for travelers. Resilience, innovation, and collaboration will be key to safely guiding both business and leisure travelers through the year ahead.
