What
Two-thirds of leisure travelers (64%) plan to travel this summer, according to a new AAA Travel survey. Destinations most booked by AAA, in order, are Orlando, Fla.; London; Rome; Vancouver, British Columbia; Dublin; Paris; Seattle; Anchorage, Alaska; Honolulu; and Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic.
Why It Matters
AAA’s data reveals what’s trending for the summer. Theme park vacations in Orlando will continue to attract clients, and the lure of a European summer remains strong. In North America, bookings to Vancouver, Seattle and Anchorage suggest the popularity of Alaskan cruises.
What They Are Saying
“Millions of Americans are making plans for summer vacations, visiting famous landmarks in Europe, family attractions stateside, and anything in between,” said Paula Twidale, vice president of AAA Travel. “AAA recommends travelers plan ahead and book early with the expertise of a knowledgeable travel agent to maximize your vacation experience, saving time and money so you can focus on making vacation memories that will last well after summer fades away.”
