Despite ongoing economic concerns and declining consumer confidence, a new survey shows that people still plan to increase their travel spending, even as they cut back on entertainment like movies and live events. Eurostar is experiencing a strong rise in bookings from U.S. travelers, with CEO Gwendoline Cazenave noting no signs of a slowdown and emphasizing seamless travel as key to continued growth. Meanwhile, Singapore is set for a tourism boost thanks to Lady Gaga's May concerts, which have driven a significant surge in travel bookings and accommodation searches.
