New Delhi: Nearly one in four travellers booked more than one festive trip between October and December last year, while festive bookings for the corresponding period in 2026 are already running about "50 per cent ahead" of last year, according to a report released by backpacker hostel chain Zostel.
The report, titled "Zostel Festive Travel Pulse 2026", said India's festive season is increasingly becoming a period of multiple short getaways rather than a single holiday, with "23 per cent" of Zostel travellers making repeat bookings during the October-December quarter last year.
