New York remains the top selling destination for long-haul operator Hayes & Jarvis, followed by Thailand and the Maldives.
Las Vegas and Mauritius make up the rest of the top five destinations, according to the operator’s latest Trends Report.
However, it predicted Kenya would also sell well this year, having seen a whopping 103% rise in customers planning trips to the East Africa destination.
Malaysia is coming back into favour too, said Hayes & Jarvis, which has seen a 37% year-on-year increase in bookings to the southeast Asia country, and it is seeing a 24% rise in bookings to Sri Lanka, which has recently opened up more of the east coast to tourism.
Brazil is benefiting from hosting the Olympic Games, which has led to a 54% rise in bookings for 2017.
The operator said that while the most popular duration for long-haul holidays was still 11 to 15 nights, it had seen a 6% rise in longer durations, a trend it is expecting to continue.
