Travelers are ready for some rest and relaxation this spring break. Travel insurance company Allianz Partners surveyed travelers on their upcoming spring break travel plans. The study found Florida to be the top domestic destination. Mexico took the top spot among international destinations.

 

Allianz Partners analyzed more than 1.8 million flight itineraries between five- and eight-day trips in length to compile the results. For domestic vacations, Florida ranked most popular, with five cities in the top 10. Overall, domestic travel is on the rise, with 77 percent of those traveling for spring break staying within the United States. Road trips will be popular this year, with 40 percent of vacationers planning to drive to their destination.

 

International travel is more complicated than in years past due to ever-changing COVID-19 travel restrictions. Mexico takes the top three spots on the international travel list, thanks in part to the country’s entry requirements. Costa Rica is another popular spot, with two of its cities rounding out the top 10.

 

Domestic

  1. Orlando, Florida
  2. Phoenix, Arizona
  3. Miami, Florida
  4. Fort Lauderdale, Florida
  5. Las Vegas, Nevada
  6. Fort Myers, Florida
  7. Tampa, Florida
  8. Salt Lake City, Utah

6 Stroller-Friendly Cities in Europe

Families traveling with young children learn to be creative in getting strollers into seemingly impossible places. Some cities confound even the most determined parents: Innumerable bridges with steps are a challenge in Venice, and Lisbon’s hills seem insurmountable. Narrow or rough stone-paved streets are not stroller-friendly, either. Save those cities for another year and consider these instead.
