For decades, the travel industry sold itself on freedom- open tickets, open roads, open minds. But according to latest Travel Predictions 2026 report, travellers aren’t just chasing sunsets or sales anymore. They’re consulting the stars and no, not the celebrity kind. Data from the report reveals that nearly three in four Indian travellers i.e 74% people would cancel or change a trip if a spiritual advisor warned them of unfavourable timing. Another 70% said they’d reconsider a vacation entirely if a horoscope indicated friction. More surprising still, 64% actively account for spiritual, astrological, or cosmic factors when planning, aligning their holidays with lunar phases, solstice cycles, or energy-rich geographies.
