“The overwhelming majority of survey respondents - 76 percent, said they are planning at least two or more leisure trips in 2019 and many of them want to travel domestically to states best known for outdoor recreation,” said Daniel Olsen, Chief Operating Officer of Beyond and Back Travel. “Whether it is the lure of national parks or adventure parks, or simply a sense of adventure most vacationers want to simply get away from home, as nearly 90 percent said they expect to take some type of trip in 2019.”

In the international category, the Caribbean is a perennial favorite and is popular due to the all-inclusive resorts, as well as the cruise scene,” added Olsen. “Travelers have also taken an interest in strongly supporting the Caribbean economy. In fact, data from the Caribbean Tourism Organization shows that there has been year-over-year increased demand for 15 Caribbean destinations.”
Western Europe is also popular among solo travelers, who ranked it first, ahead of the Caribbean, according to the Travel Leaders Group survey. “We are seeing steady interest from our Melbourne Beach and Indialantic area clients in active and adventure travel, culinary and wine tours and this adds to the interest for solo travelers,” Olsen added.
