Austin, Texas-based peer-to-peer RV rental company RVshare has reached the milestone of two million days booked for RV trips since the company’s inception.
The platform has been in operation since 2013 and only recently reached one million days booked – that was in July 2019. So, the site has doubled its seven-year booking total in just 13 months.
COVID-19 and desire of American families to maintain control of their surroundings during the pandemic has had everything to do with the huge surge the company has experienced this spring/summer. And, there is no sign of business slowing down as bookings for fall have already increased 123 percent year-over-year and growing.
“I am so proud of our team for all their efforts put forth to achieve this significant milestone,” said RVshare CEO Jon Gray. “Not only are we thrilled to enable travelers to experience the joys of nature and togetherness that RV travel provides, but to be a driving force in the recovery of the American travel industry.”
And going forward?
According to a recent RVshare survey, nearly 70 percent of respondents plan to take a trip in the next three months, and 68 percent are likely to consider an RV for their fall getaway.
