A huge majority of respondents or 87 percent say they plan to take the same or more leisure vacations this year.
“In addition, when asked if they would fit more travel into 2011 if good deals were available, 94 percent of respondents answered yes,” said Travel Ticker.
“It’s great to see that, after quite a bumpy year, consumers feel ready to start taking their long awaited dream vacations, especially if presented with inspiring travel deals,” said Barbara Messing, General Manager of Travel Ticker.
Other findings:
—Almost half of the 18 to 30-year-olds in the survey said they plan on taking more leisure trips this year than the previous one.
—Almost one third of all respondents said they believe their current economic situation will be better this year, and that they will be able to travel more. That number is up by ten percent over last year.
—Only six percent said they plan on traveling less in 2011.
