Growth markets comprise not only the lifestyle, geographic and ethnic markets - but also the economic or price-point markets. In a story published today by Travel Market Report and written by Robin Amstery, the article points out various tour operators who are tapping into new growth markets by capitalizing on the debut of new higher or lower-end tour products and services.

"Tour operators are diversifying with new product lines priced both lower and higher than their traditional tours. The strategy is aimed at reaching new markets as well as building brand loyalty among travelers – and travel agents.
