Seattle and Cancun have emerged as the top travel destinations for American travelers this summer, according to new data from Allianz Partners USA’s Top Summer Travel Destinations Report. The report reveals that 71% of Americans are opting for domestic travel, while 29% are planning international getaways.
“American travelers are starting to thaw from a long winter and are flocking to sunny beaches across the U.S. and abroad,” said Daniel Durazo, director of external communications at Allianz Partners USA. “Summer travel is often the highlight of travelers’ year, with everyone excited for some well-deserved time away. No one wants an unexpected challenge to take away from that excitement — that’s why it’s critical to have travel insurance. It helps safeguard your trip from unexpected cancellations, delays, medical emergencies, and even lost or delayed baggage.”
Within the U.S., Hawaii continues to be a popular destination, with Honolulu (#4) and Kahului (#5) landing in the top five domestic spots. Other major U.S. destinations include Orlando (#2), New York (#3), Boston (#6), Portland (#7), Las Vegas (#8), Los Angeles (#9), and Anchorage (#10).
When it comes to international destinations, Mexico remains a favorite, with three locations in the top ten: Cancun (#1), San José del Cabo (#2), and Puerto Vallarta (#9). Other international hot spots include London (#3), Punta Cana (#4), Montego Bay (#5), Calgary (#6), Paris (#8), and Dublin (#10).
With summer travel just around the corner, Allianz Partners USA emphasizes the importance of travel insurance to ensure a worry-free vacation experience, particularly when traveling internationally or to popular destinations where unforeseen events can disrupt plans.
