Report: From bucket list to booking — How TikTok is shaping travel decisions today

TikTok made its debut in the United Kingdom in 2018 and has grown rapidly over the intervening years and is now approaching par, across most metrics, with the longer-established, legacy social media and entertainment platforms. 

Over the years,
