Asian cities top lists for emerging destinations
North Americans are increasingly looking to Asian travel. So Skyscanner revealed what it called the “top ten emerging destinations for overseas travel.”
They were led by Shanghai and Taipei, followed by Bejing and Tokyo.
Also on the list: Ho Chi Minh City, Singapore and Hong Kong.
“Data from flight comparison Skyscanner.com shows US travelers are increasingly interested in travel with eight of the top biggest risers located in the Far East,” the company says.
“Although destinations such as London, Paris and Rome still remain the highest searched-for destinations, it is very interesting to see such an apparent trend for Asian cities when we look at which destinations have seen the biggest increase in searches from 2009 to 2010, “ said Scot Carlson.
