TWO-THIRDS OF TRAVELERS LOOK FORWARD TO SPONTANEOUS GETAWAYS

New data from Motel 6 and Studio 6 reveal vacationers enjoy booking spur-of-the-moment escapes

DALLAS (April 20, 2023) – As temperatures begin to rise, travelers are getting the urge to explore, and new research shows they’re acting on that spur-of-the-moment travel bug. Recent data from leading economy lodging brands, Motel 6 and Studio 6, reveals that two out of three (67%) Americans with travel plans this year say that the best trips are spontaneous and decided on a whim.

The study, which surveyed over 2,000 Americans who plan to travel this year also found that almost three-quarters (73%) would be willing to visit a surprise destination.

“Taking a last-minute getaway is a great way to add some joy into your life,” said Julie Arrowsmith, President and Interim CEO of G6 Hospitality, parent company of Motel 6 and Studio 6. “For those seeking a new adventure this summer, they can rest easy knowing that Motel 6 and Studio 6 are here to provide clean, comfortable and affordable places to stay so travelers can spend more on the actual experiences and events that brought them to the destination.”

Traveling Distances, With Companions
Seven in 10 (70%) travelers report they are indulging in longer excursions by traveling more than three hours from their hometown. And, what’s an unforgettable summer road trip without loved ones – either human or furry friends. When asked about companions, more than three in four (78%) travelers prefer to journey with other people, while almost one in three (28%) are planning to explore with pets.

Off-Season & Longer Trips
With impromptu trips on the rise, more than two in five (44%) vacationers admit they are switching up their travel experiences this year. Most notably, the typical “travel season” may be a thing of the past, with almost half (47%) indicating that they are just as likely to get away during the off-season or weekdays as opposed to peak times like holidays and weekends.

Another one in three (32%) are indulging in their wanderlust by taking longer vacations than ever before. For those longer trips, vacationers needing a home-away-from-home can rest easy with an extended stay lodging option like Studio 6, where rooms come well-equipped with a full kitchenette and on-site laundry.

Hotel Stays & Prioritizing Discounts
In fact, no matter the length of the trip, nearly half (49%) of American tourists plan to stay at a hotel or motel. And, when booking accommodations, two-thirds (66%) say rewards programs are important to them while on the road. Those looking to save this summer can enjoy exclusive promotions and discounts while saving 6% off their stay by joining My6, a free rewards program from Motel 6 and Studio 6 with deals to support summer adventures.

Motel 6 Partners With Share Winter Foundation and Indy Pass to Make Ski Trips More Accessible This Winter

Economy lodging brand will fund transportation for 200+ children in Midwest to hit the slopes

DALLAS (Nov. 29, 2022) – For a second year in a row, Motel 6 is working to make winter sports more accessible to children and individuals across the U.S. through two partnerships that aim to ease the financial burdens of skiing and snowboarding.

Through its partnership with the Share Winter Foundation, an organization dedicated to improving the lives, health and fitness of children through winter sports, Motel 6 is funding the transportation to and from ski resorts for over 200 children from six Midwest-based organizations: Corbeau Ski Club, Pocono Family YMCA, Positive Altitudes, Boys and Girls Club of the Wausau Area Inc., BGC Oshkosh and Boardslide Mission.

“The Share Winter Foundation is entirely funded by grants so we would not be able to do what we do without partners like Motel 6,” said Constance Beverley, CEO of Share Winter Foundation. “Transportation is one of the greatest hurdles to youth snow sports participation, so we are grateful for their continued support of our organization.”

Motel 6 and Studio 6 have more than 280 locations near ski resorts in the U.S. and Canada, helping families travel within their budgets. To save on lift tickets when hitting the slopes, My6 members can receive 10% off adult and kid Indy Pass tickets, a multi-resort season pass with access to over 80 ski areas across North America, with the code MOTEL6INDY23.

Learn more about the Share Winter Foundation and Indy Pass discounts here.

Almost Three in Five Americans Plan to Add Extra Stops to Their Winter Trips This Year

Motel 6’s fifth annual holiday survey reveals vacationers are both “trip-stacking” and more likely to try new activities this upcoming season

DALLAS (Oct. 27, 2022) – New data from leading economy lodging brand, Motel 6, reveals nearly three in five (57%) travelers plan to “trip-stack” this winter by adding another destination or trip directly following or leading up to their existing travel plans.

This year’s holiday survey, Motel 6’s fifth annual, included 2,000 respondents with travel plans. The survey found those planning to “trip-stack” say they are choosing to do so because the holidays are the only time when friends and family are available to travel (67%). When it comes to travel, over half (52%) of respondents plan to cross an average of three state lines and plan to stay at a hotel or motel (46%) for their trips.

“The holidays are a great time to bring back favorite activities or to try entirely new experiences alongside loved ones,” said Rob Palleschi, CEO of Motel 6. “With so many travelers adding stops throughout their holiday trips this year and exploring new activities and experiences, we look forward to being a comfortable spot to rest along the way – no matter where your travels take you.”

Even though almost three-quarters (71%) of travelers report they’re more likely to try a new activity during a winter vacation than summer, respondents admitted they’ve never partaken in classic winter activities such as building a snowman (33%) or engaging in snowball fights (30%). This could be because out of the quarter (25%) of respondents who don’t regularly experience snow where they live, over half (54%) have never seen snow at all. But, regardless of their typical weather forecast, nearly three in four (72%) hope to see snow during the holidays.
