Some 13% of travelers said they bribed a brand, but almost a quarter (23%) said they had lied or exaggerated a bad experience in order to get what they want.

A survey of over 2,500 travelers has seen one in eight saying they have bribed a travel brand with a bad review in order to get what they want.

UK-based online travel agency Sunshine.co.uk asked travelers what they may have done in order to get what they want or benefit in some way during a trip – and got some pretty downbeat responses.
