Well, it's a 9 to 5 job where you simply go to work on time, serve your routine and come. This reality doesn't exist anymore. Indians are no more restricted to mere 'desk jobs', rather they are mostly 'on the move'. More Indians travel for business now; it ranks 2nd among Bleisure travellers globally.
Booking.com conducted the study during October-November 2018, among 53,492 respondents, including 1,852 Indians, across 31 markets who had travelled at least once in the past 12 months. Nearly, two-thirds of Indian travellers (65 percent) said they have been on a domestic business trip, which is the highest globally ahead of Indonesians (62 percent) and Chinese (62 percent). In addition, more than half (58 percent) of Indian travellers reported that they had been on an international business trip in 2018, it said.
