The May 2019 travel trends cover innovations in accommodation, plane-safe toiletries, deal-finding apps, aesthetically pleasing luggage accessories, and unique destination tours.
Those in search of a gift for the avid travellers among their friends and family members might take advantage of the Dr Seuss luggage tags and passport holders from Hallmark, which commemorate the classic storybook, 'Oh the Places You'll Go.'
There's also the ONE Mini translator, which is small enough to fit into a pocket, and can translate 12 different languages in real-time.
Travellers in search of a stay that's more obscure than most might like the giant potato home in Idaho that's available on Airbnb, or the two-night stay in the Louvre's glass pyramid that comes with an extensive VIP experience, which includes a pop-up living room beside the Mona Lisa, and a romantic dinner next to the Venus of Milo.
