Hispanics, in comparison to other cultural groups, are more likely to: • own a cell phone • access the Internet • share a video or picture online • use social networking sites • purchase online • update their status • use email • On Facebook, YouTube, and MySpace Hispanics had the highest total percentage reach; the second highest total percentage reach on Twitter. Hispanics are the largest and fastest-growing cultural group in the United States. Over 32 million have online access, and by 2014, 70 percent will be regular Internet users. Currently 51 percent of Hispanics access the Internet regularly from their mobile and over half of Hispanic youth text message their friends daily.

  3. General Hispanic Guiding Principles As members of a collectivist culture, they focus on pleasing and connecting with groups such as their family and friends. They seek friends and family members with experience planning a similar trip, or digital tools focused on the family’s needs as travelers. Memories created not Itinerary items checked off. All family members come along and are considered at every stage of assessing a trip’s value. Their changing needs often outpace travel companies’ tools, packages and promotions. Although they will take short trips, forgo hotel rooms to stay with family or friends, and cut back on activities during their trip, they will not sacrifice family dinners or bonding moments to meet their budget.
