Since the end of the last century, technological advancements have changed the face of the world. Internet has had an impact on every part of society, and has changed it from its roots. The next step in the technological evolution is mobility, creating a huge leap in possibilities, but also in demands. People demand more for their money in every aspect of their lives. The same trend is also visible in tourist and travel industry. Customers demand more personalized content and are not afraid to protest if they do not get what they want.
