Abstract

The purpose of this study is to conduct in-depth research from six aspects: access to information, travel time, travel companion choice, travel purpose, acceptable one-time consumption and consumption structure, and explore the characteristics of college students' free travel and consumption willingness. The article uses field trips and data collection methods to investigate the travel characteristics and willingness of students of Beijing Jiaotong University when they are free to travel. The results we obtained demonstrate that college students rely more on the Internet for information search during the free travel process; most of the college students' travel time is mainly concentrated in winter vacations and statutory holidays, and the acceptance of “friends” is not high, and they are more willing to travel with family and friends; College students have a low level of travel and diversified reasons for travel. They mainly include sightseeing, leisure and family visits. Due to economic constraints, college students’ spending power is not high. The six aspects of living, eating, swimming, shopping and entertainment are decreasing in turn, and girls are willing to spend more money on diet and shopping.
