Australia a hot spot for travel
According to a recent survey of more than 3,000 travelers from around the world. The top three most desirable travel destinations in the next year, if money were no object, are Australia, Italy and Hawaii.
“More than 3,000 travelers from around the world told us that, rather than heading to the latest trendy hot spots this year, most are drawn to tried and true, traditionally popular destinations,” said Christine Petersen, senior vice president of marketing for TripAdvisor.
The top three airlines, according to respondents, are British Airways, American Airlines and Virgin Atlantic. Surprisingly, American was also one of the three least favorite airlines, and British Airways was overwhelmingly least favorite among travelers from the U.K.
According to the survey, travelers want to get back to the basics and are looking for service from airlines, even more so than savings.
