According to AAA, 40% of American women plan to take a women's only trip in the near future. Chickable utilizes the latest in content, media and social management technology to create a single destination web portal powered by six free services - Chick Network, Chick Finder, Chick Travel, Chick Chat, Chick Gallery and Chick Gear. These services allow females to find like-minded travel companions, search travel destinations, or plan a trip with friends. When the trip is over, users can discuss the experience on Chickable and share their photos and videos.
The website is also designed to reach the growing number of solo travelers, as more and more female baby boomers enter their retirement years and want to travel alone. According to AARP, 25 million singles age 42 and older will spend $28 billion on travel this year, with more women than men deciding to travel alone. This group is more likely to take weekend trips and spend proportionately more per person than other traveler.
"Not only do women earn, own and spend more than ever before, they also stay single longer, end unfulfilling relationships sooner and typically outlive their spouse," said Chickable Founder Maria Salvaggio. "As a result, women are experiencing a fundamental change in lifestyle and are spending more time and money on themselves, and one of the hottest self-fulfilling activities for such women is women-only travel."
To help launch the site, Chickable is giving its members a chance to win a women-only trip of their choice by answering, with the most spirited and original answers, the question "Are you Chickable" Those who sign up for Chickable will be automatically entered into the contest as well.
