US travel to Europe up in 2012
The Trans-Atlantic report on the US Market for Travel to Europe reports that US travel to Europe increased just 1 percent in October, totaling 852,344 visits, according to the latest figures from the Dept. of Commerce.
The report states that Hurricane Sandy was a factor, cancelling flights from New York, Newark and other airports from Oct. 29-31.
For the year through October, however, US visits to Europe are up 4.3 percent, to 9.89 million.
Lowest trans-Atlantic fares have dropped again for the winter on some routes. The lowest midweek New York-London round trips are down 13.5 percent to $773 for December through March (Christmas week not included).
