Norwegians have always been happy to travel, but choosing to spend so much more money on our travels now is interesting. So far, we do not see any signs of “flight shame” here, says e-commerce analyst Johanna Tell in DIBS.
For the thirteenth consecutive year, the company presents the report Norwegian E-commerce, which shows that total e-commerce has increased by 13 % in one year.
At the same time, it shows that total consumption of goods purchases has decreased by 4.6 %. This could mean that Norwegians have become busier spending money on experiences instead of things, believes the e-commerce analyst in DIBS.
