Attendees of Oracle Hospitality Connect in Singapore got a precious glimpse at what many would crane their necks to see: The future.

In this case, the key trends that will define travel in the years ahead. Among them: Subscription travel – think Netflix model – is the next frontier of loyalty. Smart design is not just for luxury travel anymore. Gen Z will assert itself as travel's next big opportunity. Wellness travel makes aging aspirational.

The sneak peek came courtesy of Skift, a leading industry research firm, which provided an exclusive preview of its much-anticipated 2020 Megatrends in Travel report at OH Connect, Oracle's premier industry event.

Held at Fairmont Singapore, 10-12th December, the conference assembled Asia-Pacific's top hoteliers, industry experts and Oracle leadership. OH Connect is designed to share technology best practices and address hospitality's most-pressing topics – and the critical role Oracle cloud-based solutions can play in tackling them.

Skift's presentation led off the final day's agenda and provided hoteliers with defining trends to put on their radar.
