Fly.com today announced the findings of new research which shows how destinations, located in the Caribbean and Europe, are duking it out as America’s most popular international vacation spot this summer.
Most Popular International Destinations for Summer Travel
While the top 20 international destinations were largely split between the two regions, the overall winner was San Juan, Puerto Rico, which beat out second-place finisher London, England, by a 16 percent margin.
However what was really interesting for me were the sample fares found on Fly.com. A Puerto Rico roundtrip flight for just $115, Ireland for $585…? I think it is time to start planning my next trip!
