There’s an intersection between hobbies and travel that most of us might not recognize. For example, gamers might want to visit famous locations from video games, or places that inspired them. Stargazers might want to visit open and renowned celestial viewing spots. Art enthusiasts might want to see the biggest masterpieces across the world. Horticulturalists might want to see all the botanical miracles. It doesn’t matter what you’re into, there’s always a destination for you. But planning out those trips is not the simplest thing to do.  Skyscanner, a world-leading travel app, can help.

How? Skyscanner searches billions of prices every day across available flights, hotels, and rental cars, with the goal of helping travelers book their dream trips with ease. But I’m not really here to sell you on an app, although you should definitely check out Skyscanner. I am here to share Skyscanner’s 2025 Travel Trends hub. The idea is that it might help you book your next big trip.

What’s so special about the Skyscanner Travel Trends 2025 hub?

Just as I mentioned above, sometimes we need a little inspiration. Everyone knows that you should take time away to visit a remote location. You need to relax, unwind, and reset. That’s why vacations exist, whether you go with your entire family or go alone. But again, it’s not always easy to plan out those experiences, especially with what’s involved. You have to book a place to stay, a way to get there, a way to get around, and perhaps most importantly, a way to get back home when it’s all done.

So, choosing a destination or planning a trip isn’t just about where you want to go and what you want to do. It’s also about everything else that trip entails, like places to stay and sleep, how to move around or public transport, and so much more. The Skyscanner Travel Trends 2025 hub can kickstart many of those ideas. Unpacking the common trends can help you find popular destinations. If you want to go against the grain there are other breakdowns, too. Sport Mode walks you through the best trips for sports fans and athletes. Astro Adventurers the celestial sights. Reset Jetters has a bunch of locations you can go off-grid and relax. Even Cowboy Core gets you back in the saddle with some country-themed destinations.

Basically, each segment tells you places you can go, and things you can do, and gets the entire process started. It’s all the inspiration you need to take your next big dream trip. And if you do find something you like, you can use Skyscanner to make it all happen. Book flights, cars, and hotels, all in one place.

John F. Kennedy International Airport’s Terminal 5 is set for a major renovation, with a planned opening by the end of 2026. This week, The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and Fraport USA, manager of John F. Kennedy International Airport’s Terminal 5, announced the project, and JetBlue will be a major contributor to the changes. The refreshed terminal will have over 40 new concessions and customer experiences, including 18 local food and beverage options.

The new center concourse of Terminal 5 will use a design inspired by New York City’s famous parks. Details will consist of benches, greenery, chess tables, and warm lighting. It’ll be a space for travelers to relax before takeoff. The new space will also serve as an area for pop-up events, live performances, and interactive events to draw attention to New York’s cultural offerings. Also, artwork spread throughout will feature over 30 works by New York-based artists, highlighting the city’s creative culture.

Delta is helping develop this innovative aircraft
Delta is helping Jet Zero develop a new plane

Delta is joining forces with JetZero to help bring a blended-wing body (BWB) aircraft to the skies. With a futuristic, sci-fi appearance, the innovative plane will mark a significant departure from today’s conventional tube and wing designs. The collaboration includes Delta as a potential buyer, helping to iron out design and operation issues during development.
BWB aircraft offer a similar range yet burn half the fuel

JetZero’s blended-wing body aircraft is lighter and more aerodynamic than current tube and wing designs. That should provide a similar range and speed as today’s midbody airliners, while burning half the fuel. That’ll save airlines money while helping them reach the industry’s 2050 goal of zero carbon emissions. Unlike conventional airliners, the BWB mixes the passenger area into the wings, the shape reduces drag and increasing lift. That means the plane can fly higher, in thinner air, for fuel savings.
