HONG KONG, Sept. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Infinix, a trendy tech brand crafted for young consumers, has officially kicked off the second year of the Mobile Vlog Awards (MVA) 2024 on TikTok, a vlog competition designed to empower young creators worldwide. With the slogan “Capture Your Own Story” and the theme “Your Story, Your Style,” participants are invited to share their unique vlog creations by engaging with the hashtag #InfinixMVA and utilizing the specially developed TikTok filter. This year, Infinix is collaborating with industry experts from various fields, including a Museum of Modern Art curator, an AI video mentor, and a GoPro award-winning filmmaker, who will inspire participants to enhance their content. With enticing prizes like a $10,000 USD TikTok boost and exclusive opportunities for in-depth discussions with these leaders, MVA 2024 is more than just a competition – it’s a movement redefining the art of vlogging and pushing creative boundaries.

Celebrating The New Canvas for a Global Youth Ethnography

At its core, the MVA created by Infinix is a platform that elevates vlogging from a social media trend into an art form. Powered by the Infinix ZERO Series, the MVA aims to inspire global youth to explore the artistic potential of vertical filmmaking, encouraging them to step out of their comfort zones and create unique content from indoors to outdoors. This initiative is focused on fostering creativity, encouraging cultural exchange, and showcasing the authentic, vibrant lives of young people across the world. By offering a platform for vlogs, which are born from the creativity of young users, Infinix is laying the foundation for a global youth ethnography – an expansive, integrated collection of stories that reflect the diverse realities of our times.

Continuing the slogan from the previous year, “Capture Your Own Story,” this year’s MVA theme is “Your Story, Your Style.” This signifies Infinix’s aim to create a simple, easily replicable approach that allows for personal style expression, encouraging young people to explore their dream destinations, and capture exciting stories from their unique perspectives.

“The inaugural launch of the MVA concluded last year in partnership with the prestigious Venice Film Festival, attracting over 44,000 creative submissions from across the globe. This year, we’ve broadened our horizons by collaborating with academic authorities and seasoned vloggers who are at the forefront of technology and creative expression. Our goal is to select high-quality works through diverse perspectives and pioneering standards, bringing these exceptional creations to a wider audience and influencing future creators. At Infinix, we view vlogging as more than just a social media trend; it’s a powerful medium for self-expression and cultural dialogue. We aspire to inspire young creators to explore the world around them, pushing the boundaries of what can be achieved with a smartphone,” said Lake Hu, Vice General Manager and Chief Marketing Officer of Infinix.

In anticipation of MVA 2024, Infinix has unveiled the pro-level vlog smartphone, the ZERO 40 Series, featuring cutting-edge 4K front and rear ProStable video capabilities, 50MP ultra-wide lenses, seamless GoPro integration, and advanced AI-powered tools like AI Vlog. These innovative features are crafted to inspire greater creativity and freedom of expression in vlogging, empowering participants to push the limits of mobile videography and elevate their storytelling to new heights.

“A product that simplifies the processes of shooting, creating, and editing effectively can lower the barriers to content creation. The Infinix ZERO 40 Series is specifically designed for vlog shooting, featuring 4K high-definition resolution and ProStable video stabilization, allowing everyday users to create professional-grade vlogs. The seamless GoPro integration and AI-assisted vlog editing tools not only reduce the creative threshold but also expand the possibilities for creators,” said Weiqi Nie, Product Director at Infinix.

A Symphony of Perspectives: Meet the Master Minds Behind MVA 2024

This year’s MVA features an eclectic panel of judges, each bringing a unique perspective that seamlessly bridges the realms of art, trends, and technology. Among them is Moritz Neumüller, a renowned global curator of contemporary art and cultural diversity, who has strong ties to the Museum of Modern Art, where he worked under esteemed photography curator Peter Galassi. By fostering a dialogue between art and science, Moritz has showcased his ability to blend disciplines and uncover deeper connections – a skill that will be invaluable as he guides MVA participants in unlocking the artistic potential of their vlogs.

He expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “In this vlog competition, I’m particularly interested in works that challenge the norm and offer fresh perspectives. I’m less focused on conventional content; instead, I seek vlogs that push the boundaries of the medium and highlight overlooked realities. The ability to craft a story that is both aesthetically coherent and creatively original is what will truly set participants apart.”

Joshua Guvi, a content creator with hundreds of thousands of devoted fans, is celebrated for his cinematic-quality vlogs. He gained prominence through his highly successful travel films, which have set new standards in vlogging with their breathtaking visuals and compelling storytelling. In an era dominated by AI tools, he has positioned himself at the forefront of this evolution, advocating for the integration of AI into video creation as an ambassador for platforms like Artlist. His innovative approach encourages creators to transcend traditional boundaries, using emerging technology to broaden their creative horizons.

Joining the judging panel are leaders from diverse fields, providing a comprehensive evaluation of entries from the perspectives of technology, humanities, and innovation. Saurabh Shukla, a GoPro award winner, is renowned for capturing the raw essence of street and travel scenes; Joan Nadal, a UNESCO member, specializes in STEM education and sustainable design, merging technology with creativity; and Lake Hu, the Vice GM and CMO of Infinix, is a dedicated mentor focused on empowering youth in technology, driving innovation, and fostering cultural dialogue through mobile platforms.

‘Golden era’ for Hong Kong retail is over as Chinese tourists continue to tighten their purse strings

Tourists from mainland cities enter a Louis Vuitton store at Tsim Sha Tsui on June 5, 2024 in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong’s retail sector has languished since the pandemic and analysts say it could be years before it bounces back.

The city’s retail sales have plunged 7.3% in the first seven months of the year compared with 2023, according to government data published Friday. That’s despite a massive 52.2% rebound in visitor arrivals during the period.

The city was once lauded as a shopping paradise, particularly for mainland Chinese tourists, often seen exiting luxury stores with multiple bags in hand. Mainland China accounted for nearly 90% of the 22.16 billion Hong Kong dollars ($2.84 billion) spent by same-day visitors and 67% of the HK$119.1 billion spent by overnight visitors in 2023.

But analysts said the golden days will not return “for a long, long time” as mainland Chinese tighten their purse strings under the cloud of economic uncertainty.

“The reduced spending of middle class Chinese tourists in Hong Kong can be attributed to the economic slowdown — started by the property downturn, shift in consumption patterns, increased focus on savings due to challenging employment prospects and changing travel preferences,” said Christine Li, head of research for Asia-Pacific at Knight Frank.

In 2023, overnight tourists from the mainland spent 6,495 Hong Kong dollars ($833) per capita, rising 8.4% from 2019 levels. But same-day mainland Chinese visitor spending fell 37% to just HK$1,383 in 2023.

“Post-Covid, mainland Chinese consumers are prioritizing experiences over material goods, driven by a desire to reconnect, make up for lost time, and live in the moment,” Li said. “This shift in values has led to weaker sales in high-end luxury sales, particularly noticeable in Chinese consumer spending.”

Concerns about the economic situation on the mainland has trickled down into how money is spent elsewhere. Analysts pointed to the popularity of “zero-dollar” tours where travelers pay in advance for transportation, accommodation and meals. Tourists with limited budgets may not spend much beyond the prepaid expenses covered in these packages.

“They take pictures for their online accounts, but they don’t spend money. They’re not spending the same amount of money in shops or restaurants like they used to,” Simon Smith, Savills’ regional head of research and consultancy for Asia Pacific, told CNBC. “The golden era for Hong Kong’s retail market is over. That’s the reality.”

Data from the Hong Kong Tourism Board showed the city welcomed 34 million tourists last year, including 26.8 million from the mainland. This is a significant decline from 55.91 million overseas arrivals in 2019, with 43.77 million from mainland China.

Smith noted even Hong Kong residents are increasingly shopping in neighboring Shenzhen, just 14 minutes away via high speed rail.

“It’s a third of the price in Shenzhen. You get great food, good service and modern shopping malls,” Smith said, adding that many young professionals — often the biggest shoppers — have emigrated out of Hong Kong.

Hong Kong is still weak, says luxury hotel operator HongKong and Shanghai Hotels

Even wealthy Chinese have cut back on luxury spending when visiting Hong Kong, Knight Frank’s Li pointed out.

“The decline in luxury spending by mainland Chinese tourists has had a deep impact on Hong Kong’s retail industry. Hong Kong’s retail sector, which was heavily reliant on high-end purchases such as watches, handbags, and jewelry from mainland Chinese tourists, has faced significant challenges,” she said.

“Hong Kong, unfortunately, is going through some challenging adjustments, and tourists and locals now have a very different mindset,” Nick Bradstreet, Savills’ head of Asia-Pacific retail told CNBC.

Bounce back?

Although analysts believe that much time is still needed before consumer confidence from the Chinese recovers, there is hope that Hong Kong’s retail industry could see a rebound — but focus needs to turn away from luxury spending.

“The focus is shifting from luxury items to creating engaging and memorable shopping experiences that resonate with a broader range of consumers,” Li said, elaborating that recovery is “feasible.”

Henry Chin,  head of Asia-Pacific research at CBRE, was more optimistic about the bounce back in the city’s retail industry, but warned that it will take “longer than what we have experienced throughout the past few cycles” due to the current cyclical downturn and structural challenges in China.

Spanning 1.1 hectares of lush landscapes, The Kayon Villas Tirta Gangga will feature 22 exquisite bamboo villas, each meticulously designed with sustainability and wellness in mind. Embracing the region’s rich cultural heritage, the resort offers a perfect blend of traditional Balinese charm, modern eco-luxury comforts, and cutting-edge technology that elevates the guest experience to new heights.

The bamboo villas are crafted to integrate seamlessly with the diverse natural elements of the resort’s setting. Rising gracefully amid cascading valleys and rice fields, these striking structures are designed to enhance and reflect their environment. Their presence among the surrounding mountains and lush terrain creates a harmonious balance that captivates all who visit, leaving a lasting impression with their elegant yet bold design. This interdisciplinary design integrates reverence for ancient traditions with a profound appreciation for nature and millennia-old cultural heritage.

“We are thrilled to introduce The Kayon Villas Tirta Gangga as the latest addition to The Kayon Hotels & Resorts family,” said I Wayan Sucitra, General Manager & CEO of The Kayon Hotels & Resorts. “With its sustainable design, serene ambiance, and unparalleled hospitality, we aim to create an unforgettable experience for guests seeking healing excursions, romantic getaways, and intimate weddings.”

Overlooking a magical and mesmerizing valley with breathtaking views of the serene surroundings, the resort offers vistas of Mount Lempuyang and Mount Agung as a stunning backdrop, with the infinite South Sea extending towards the horizon. The ambient air is refreshingly cool and gently breezy, providing an environment of utmost comfort and tranquility. Inspired by the natural beauty of its surroundings, The Kayon Villas Tirta Gangga offers an array of luxurious amenities, including the renowned Kepitu Restaurant, the rejuvenating Serayu Wellness & Spa, and the enchanting Puspaka Chapel.

From bespoke wellness programs to refined dining options, every detail is designed to reflect the resort’s commitment to comfort and excellence.

Once you step into the Serayu Wellness, you will be transported into a lavish water palace and feel treated like royalty. The grand design of Serayu Wellness draws inspiration from Bali’s most iconic water palaces, Tirta Gangga Water Palace and Taman Ujung Water Palace, located nearby. These water palaces hold profound cosmological significance as the convergence points of the mountains and the sea: Mount Lempuyangan to the northeast, Mount Agung to the west, the Indian Ocean to the south, and the Lombok Strait to the east. This concept, known as Mandalagiri, represents the harmonious balance between earth and water, embodying tranquility and equilibrium, which is elegantly mirrored in the design and ambiance of The Kayon Villas Tirta Gangga. The spa will offer culturally-inspired treatments and therapeutic experiences that embody the tagline of Karangasem, “The Spirit of East Bali.”

Additionally, the resort will feature a spectacular two-layer hanging pool, providing an exceptional vantage point of the surrounding landscape, inspired by its iconic sister establishment, The Kayon Jungle Resort.

The village is also surrounded by other historical landmarks such as the ancient Lempuyang Temple or Pura Lempuyang. Nearby, visitors can also enjoy the pristine beaches of Amed and Virgin Beach, perfect for relaxation and exploration.

Rooted in local folklore and spiritual history, Ababi village in Karangasem holds a special significance for the Balinese people. According to legend, this serene village was once home to the revered sage Empu Kuturan, whose teachings continue to inspire spiritual seekers today.

Immersed in profound spiritual heritage, surrounded by breathtaking landmarks, and nestled near stunning beaches, The Kayon Villas Tirta Gangga emerges as the ultimate destination in eastern Bali. Here, guests will discover an unrivaled fusion of ultra-luxury, eco-consciousness, cultural immersion, and natural splendor. It stands as the ultimate sanctuary for those yearning for healing and rejuvenation.

This 6-quart air fryer has racked up nearly 4,000 five-star reviews at Amazon — where it’s currently marked down to its lowest price yet. It can air-fry, bake, roast, broil, dehydrate, reheat, cook from frozen, proof bread and keep food warm.

Put it in Turbo mode and you can have dinner ready in under 15 minutes.

This doesn’t happen often: Apple’s newest MacBook Air laptop just got marked down. For a limited time, you can snag it for close to 20% off at Amazon. While it doesn’t show that it’s a deal in this color, you’ll save a little over $200, compared to its standard price at Apple.

If you can’t seem to get your tile grout clean, try this little scrubber — it’s like an electric toothbrush but for cleaning. It does practically all of the heavy lifting with its oscillating head, which scrubs 60 times per second. It also has two cleaning modes — a pulsing motion or continuous scrubbing — and its small design means it’ll fit into all of those corners, nooks and crannies that would likely be neglected with a larger brush. Amazon shoppers and Yahoo editors who have tried it are impressed.

“I never write reviews — but I had to write about this amazing little tool,” gushed a five-star reviewer. “I just bought a new house and wasn’t going to replace kitchen and bathroom floors. I spent an hour or so with this little tool and some grout cleaner, and my old kitchen floors look alive again. I’m shocked. And very, very happy.”

Don’t let this lightweight vacuum fool you — shoppers say it’s a “powerhouse.” And it’s popular, too. Just since yesterday, over 1,000 people have bought it! The vac’s Helix dirt separation system helps keep filters fresh and new for longer, and five height settings allow cleaning on almost any surface. Plus, its bagless, large-capacity dirt tank holds enough debris that you can clean the whole house without having to stop to empty it.

“I love this vacuum. It sucks up everything, and I mean everything: It will suck the carpet up,” said one impressed customer. “I have little kids and they dirty up everything. My last vac I had, which was a Dirt Devil, didn’t operate this well. Definitely would recommend!”

This popular electric toothbrush — now $30 off — can clean your teeth and give you a whiter smile at a pretty incredible price. It has three brush speeds and a built-in two-minute timer to help you develop a better brushing routine. If you have sensitive teeth or gums, you’ll be glad to hear it also has a pressure sensor that signals if you’re applying too much pressure, so you can clean safely and effectively. 

“This is the best toothbrush I’ve ever used!” wrote a reviewer. “It lets you know if you are brushing too hard or soft by a flashing light around the top. And it gives you that after-dentist-cleaning feeling. Worth every penny!”

Wake up to fresh coffee or espresso with Nespresso’s VertuoPlus machine, which makes it super easy to brew. One button brews up to four different sizes of java. Once it’s done, it automatically disposes of your pod by sliding it into an attached container, which you can empty once it’s full (it holds up to 10 used capsules).

“OK, so this thing is fast! Much quicker than Keurig. It took about 60 seconds to brew a nice frothy cup of coffee. One button and you’re done,” explained one shopper. “I love the froth, and the coffee included in the set is also very good. The coffee is hot, but not too hot and can be enjoyed almost immediately. Very attractive design; will impress guests!”

Is it a shirt or is it a jacket? It’s both! This jean “shacket” comes in a range of denim colors and you can wear it on its own or layer it over a T-shirt with leggings for a comfy, yet cute and casual look. 

“Obsessed doesn’t even begin to describe it! This oversized denim jacket has become my instant fave,” said one shopper. “The boyfriend cut drapes perfectly, giving me that chic, borrowed-from-the-boys vibe, and the distressed detailing adds a touch of edgy attitude. This jacket is my ride-or-die for all things casual. Coffee runs? Check. Weekend strolls? Double check. Even throwing it on over a sundress for a breezy night out feels effortlessly put-together. Plus, the quality is top-notch — the denim is soft but sturdy, and the buttons seem like they could handle a toddler-induced tug-of-war (don’t ask!).”

An All-Star Lineup of SJM

Grand Lisboa Palace Resort Macau, SJM’s flagship property, is home to the only international designer-branded hotels in the world. Situated in vibrant Cotai area, its design harmoniously blends Eastern and Western elements, consisting of three magnificent hotel towers: the elegant Grand Lisboa Palace Macau, the one and only THE KARL LAGERFELD MACAU in the world, and the very first Palazzo Versace Macau in Asia. The collection offers ultra-luxurious accommodations, global culinary delights, award-winning spa experiences, fashionable shopping, and exciting happenings, all under one roof.

Likewise, the Grand Lisboa Macau, distinguished with Five-Star ratings from Forbes Travel Guide, is located on the Macau Peninsula and features Robuchon au Dôme, the only restaurant in Macau awarded three MICHELIN Stars for 16 consecutive years. The hotel’s restaurants have also garnered MICHELIN Stars, diamonds from the Black Pearl Restaurant Guide, and Wine Spectator awards. Meanwhile, the Jai Alai Oceanus, conveniently connected with the Outer Harbour Ferry terminal, provides a broad spectrum of leisure and entertainment facilities, offering another dimension of guest experience.

At the event, SJM also introduced the long-rooted tourism assets under its parent entity, Sociedade de Turismo e Diversões de Macau, S.A. (“STDM”), which resonate with both heritage and innovation. These include Macau’s first five-star Hotel Lisboa, the upscale lifestyle Artyzen Grand Lapa Macau, and the unique beachfront hotel Grand Coloane Resort, as well as the Hotel Sintra, which is only a stone throw away from Macau’s UNESCO World Heritage sites. During the event, a lucky draw was also held for attending industry professionals and visitors, allowing them to fully experience the “The Legend of Macau” offerings as curated by SJM and STDM.

Re-defining the Gourmet Experience

Long known as a hub for the region’s top fine-dining and MICHELIN-Starred restaurants, SJM has sought to further diversify its dining portfolio by bringing in a host of new establishments this year, including retail stores and cafeterias in collaboration with prestigious global fashion brands, an international cafe that hails from Britain and an Italian family-style diner. As the owner of one of Asia’s best wine cellars, SJM is adding to the diversity of gourmet options already available to novelty-seeking visitors, while unlocking new possibilities for Macau as a “Creative City of Gastronomy.” This October, SJM is thrilled to partner with Whisky Magazine for the inaugural Whisky Live event at Grand Lisboa Palace. This prestigious international annual celebration will showcase an exquisite selection of whiskies and culinary delights from around the world, creating an unforgettable experience for enthusiasts and connoisseurs alike.

An Extravaganza of Events

In sports and culture, SJM will co-organise and title-sponsor the “SJM 10th Asian Wushu Championships,” a showpiece competition featuring elite Chinese martial artists in September. From October to November, SJM will support the “SJM Macao Open 2024,” “2024 CTA Tour SJM Professional Finals (Macao) and National Tennis Championships,” and the “71st Macau Grand Prix.” Under “Art + Tourism,” SJM will delight visitors with venues, events and promotions, such as the newly launched artistic hub “GLP Arte” at the Grand Lisboa Palace, the “Dragons of the Four Seas Tribute to Macau” annual Lantern Art Exhibition, and the “Fireworks Cruise Getaway” package for the 32nd Macao International Fireworks Display Contest.

American demand for international trips drives ‘travel momentum’ and overall spending

American demand for international trips drives ‘travel momentum’ and overall spending

Travel spending among American households continues to outpace its pre-pandemic levels, a trend underpinned by a zeal for international trips, according to new Bank of America research.

“A key part of travel momentum lies within vacationing abroad,” Taylor Bowley and Joe Wadford, economists at the Bank of America Institute, wrote in a note Wednesday.

Overall, travel spending is down slightly from 2023, yet it remains “much higher” than 2019 — up by 10.6% per household, they wrote, citing Bank of America credit and debit card data from January to mid-August.

International travel is “one area of continued strength,” Bowley and Wadford said.

About 17% of Americans said in June that they intended to vacation abroad during the next six months, up from roughly 14% in 2018 and 2019, according to a recent Conference Board survey.  

“I do expect the demand to continue,” said Hayley Berg, lead economist at travel site Hopper.

Lower airfares underpin international travel demand

Demand for international travel surged over the past two years as Covid-19-related health fears waned and countries began dropping their pandemic-era travel restrictions.

Americans spent zealously amid pent-up wanderlust and a stockpile of cash.

Falling prices for international airfare have helped underpin high demand this year, Berg said.

“Those lower prices are definitely going to drive some incremental demand for international [travel] more so than what we’ve see the last couple years,” she said.

It's a good time to be a traveler, says The Points Guy founder Brian Kelly

For example, average round-trip fares to Europe — generally the most popular international destination for U.S. tourists — declined to roughly $950 this summer, down from more than $1,000 the prior two years, Berg said.

European fares in 2022 were the highest on record, according to Hopper data, which goes back a decade.

A flight to Rome during the fall shoulder season is now about $600, down from a pandemic-era peak of roughly $1,300, for example, Berg said.

(The fall shoulder season is the time of year between the summer high season and the winter low season, usually from September to November.)

Europe accounted for the bulk of Americans’ spending from May to July, at 43%, according to Bank of America. Canada and Mexico combined held the No. 2 spot, at 21% of spending.

However, Asia has been the fastest-growing region: Spending on the continent jumped 11% relative to 2023, compared to 3% in Europe, Bank of America said. Advantageous exchange rates played into that relative strength, it said.

While international travel spending remains robust, most Americans are still vacationing domestically: About 68% of all trips that start in the U.S. remain within its borders, according to a recent analysis by the consulting firm McKinsey.

That said, “domestic demand has softened slightly, as American travelers return abroad,” McKinsey wrote.

High earners ‘splurge on travel’

Higher-income households — those earning more than $125,000 a year — seem to be driving the international-travel trend, according to Bank of America economists.

High-end luxury hotels have “outperformed” standard offerings this summer, suggesting high earners “are more resilient and continue to splurge on travel,” the Bank of America report said.

While “cost-constrained” travelers seem to be worried by a pandemic-era spike in inflation, most plan to continue traveling, McKinsey said.

“Instead of canceling their trips, these consumers are adapting their behavior by traveling during off-peak periods or booking travel further in advance,” McKinsey wrote.

Xinhua Silk Road: 2024 China (Shenyang) Rowing Development Index shows vitality of integrated dev’t of rowing and cities

BEIJING, Sept. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The 2024 China (Shenyang) Rowing Development Index was unveiled recently in Shenyang City, northeast China’s Liaoning Province, showing the vitality of the integrated development of rowing and cities.

The index, jointly compiled by China Economic Information Service (CEIS) and Shenyang Municipal People’s Government, concentrates on studying Shenyang’s rowing development. It analyzes the development path and industry characteristics of rowing in Shenyang from the three dimensions including event charm, industrial development, and sports-city integration. It also advances specialized research with the growth of international rowing sports as benchmark.

The index for this year is the third edition of the China (Shenyang) Rowing Development Index, following the two versions released in 2022 and 2023. The launch of the 2024 index marks a step forward of Shenyang towards building itself into a recognized city with strong sports competitiveness.

The 2024 index shows that Shenyang’s rowing events have gained increasing industrial and international influence, with the two core indicators measuring the number of racing teams and athletes taking the lead domestically. Since its inception in 2018, the Shenyang International Open Regatta has become one of the most influential characteristic events featuring the integration of cultural, sports, and tourism and with the largest number of participants in China.

As a rowing training and competition base, the Hunhe River flowing through southern Shenyang has witnessed flourishing sports training, leisure culture, catering services, characteristic experiences, cultural tourism and other business formats. The index tells that 390 rowing-themed cultural events was held in Shenyang in 2023, driving the revenue of rowing-related tourist attractions to exceed 10 million yuan (about 1.41 million U.S. dollars).

Shenyang has been stepping up efforts to promote rowing in campus. The number of rowing training activities on campus in Shenyang increased 20 percent year on year in 2023. At present, 41 primary and secondary schools in the city have offered rowing courses.

Has Boeing shaken your confidence to fly? A new MIT study could restore it

Has Boeing shaken your confidence to fly? A new MIT study could restore it

Airfare, departure times, flight length — these are the usual considerations for travelers who want to book a flight.

But now, more are looking at a new factor: the aircraft itself.   

One in five travelers said they are doing more research into the plane they may be flying on before they book, while slightly more (22%) said they are limiting air travel for the rest of the year, according to a survey conducted in June by the digital analytics company Quantum Metric.

Overall, 55% of travelers said they have changed the way they book flights because of recent news about aircraft and airlines, the survey showed.  

The survey did not directly mention Boeing, but a steady stream of media coverage about the company — from its quality control to business ethos — have dominated headlines since a door panel blew off a Alaska Airlines flight on Jan. 5, 2024.

Is flying less safe? A new MIT study shows how risks are changing

These stories have directed consumers’ focus to Boeing’s aircraft, which was something travelers didn’t use to pay attention to, said Danielle Harvey, global vice president and head of travel and hospitality strategy at Quantum Metric.

“Our research infers that fliers are doing more research to understand and potentially avoid Boeing aircrafts,” she said.

The survey also showed 13% of respondents are avoiding discount carriers to feel more secure about flying.

But this doesn’t really make sense, said Brendan Sobie, independent aviation analyst and founder of Sobie Aviation.

“First of all, there are more discount carriers operating Airbus (A320s) than Boeing (737s) particularly in Asia,” he said. “And the Boeing issues, of course, impact all airlines regardless of their business model.”

Fears up, risks down

As unnerving as recent headlines about Boeing may be, aviation safety is improving by the decade, according to Arnold Barnett, a professor of statistics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and co-author of a research paper about the risks of commercial flights.

The paper, published in the Journal of Air Transport Management in August, states that the risk of dying on a commercial flight globally was 1 per 13.7 million passenger boardings from 2018 to 2022 — a significant improvement from the decade before, and far cry from the one death for every 350,000 boardings that occurred between 1968-1977.

Commercial safety standards can be evaluated by a variety of metrics — from miles flow to flight hours — but according to MIT News, Barnett chose “deaths per passenger boarding” because it answers a simple question: If you have a boarding pass for a flight, what are your odds of dying?

Barnett suggests several factors have made flying safer, according to MIT News, including “technological advances, such as collision avoidance systems in planes; extensive training; and rigorous work by organizations such as the U.S. Federal Aviation Agency and the National Transportation Safety Board.”

But geographical disparities exist, according the report, which divides the world into three tiers when it comes to flight safety:

  • Tier 1: United States, the European Union and other parts of Europe, plus Australia, Canada, China, Israel, Japan and New Zealand
  • Tier 2: Bahrain, Bosnia, Brazil, Brunei, Chile, Hong Kong, India, Jordan, Kuwait, Malaysia, Mexico, Philippines, Qatar, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates
  • Tier 3: Every other country

For Tier 1 and Tier 2, the death risk for flights between 2018-22 falls to 1 per 80 million passenger boardings, according to MIT researchers.

In Tier 3 countries, fatality risks were 36 times higher that of Tier 1 countries from 2018-2022, according to the report. But even among those countries, fatalities per boarding nearly halved during this time period, Barnett noted.

Passenger concerns about Boeing likely won't be long-term, says aviation specialist

The study is a historical analysis of commercial flight safety, which does not predict how Boeing’s issues may play out in the future.

But Barnett indicated he’s confident about the future of commercial aviation.

“While the Alaska Airlines incident was certainly an emergency, the pilots responded immediately and landed the plane safely. Thus, the event shows that, even when things go terribly wrong, other elements of the air-safety system typically avert disaster,” he told CNBC Travel.

“Viewed in full, the incident says more about the safety of flying than its dangers,” he said.

Why avoiding Boeing is difficult

Though competition among airlines is fierce, aircraft manufacturing has long been dominated by the United States’ century-old Boeing company and its European competitor, Airbus. Together, the two companies manufacture nearly all large passenger aircraft.

Thus, avoiding Boeing-manufactured aircraft is possible, but not necessarily easy. However, a number of platforms, from Kayak to Alternative Airlines, allow travelers to filter flights by aircraft, an option added after two Boeing 737 Max airliners crashed within a six-month period in 2018 and 2019.  

Problems at Malaysian Airlines reached a 'breaking point,' says aviation specialist

Among those who want to only fly Airbus, or who aim to avoid Boeing’s 737 Max aircraft, some will find this easier than others, said Harvey.

“Some airlines have a significant number of Boeing aircraft in their fleet, so it could mean that people would have to switch airlines,” she said. “For the average traveler, this isn’t a problem, but for frequent travelers working to build status, that may be less appealing and thus harder to do.”

Still, nothing is guaranteed.

After Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 crashed on March 10, 2019, I paid an additional four-figure sum for my family to fly from Singapore to the United States to avoid traveling on a Boeing 737 Max.

Before the departure date, the airline emailed with minor changes to the departure time, and one other alteration that previously would have been a non-issue: a change in aircraft.

The new plane? A Boeing 737 Max.
