Where are your clients traveling this winter? A survey by the American Society of Travel Agents and Vacation.com found some answers. Agents picked Vail, Colo. as the up-and-coming hot spot for skiing. It was followed by Whistler, BC. With five listings in the top ten, Colorado was ranked the top state for up-and-coming ski destinations. For shoppers, New York was the place to go. Chicago was a distant second as up-and-coming. For families traveling with children, it was no surprise that Orlando was the favored destination of more than a third of voters. Disney was second. Agents also cited Hawaii as an up-and-coming family destination. Agents liked Cancun for couples under 40, followed by the Caribbean and Mexico. For couples over 60, cruising was the clear favorite. Hawaii, Florida, Las Vegas and the Caribbean were also cited as up-and-coming this winter.
