Travelers Face Higher Prices for Popular Summer Destinations

Demand and airfare for trips to Europe and Asia have surged, making these locations the most costly.
Domestic airfare within the U.S. has dropped but remains higher than 2019, and hotel rates have risen 11% from last year.
Rental car rates have declined compared to 2021 but overall travel costs are still expected to be expensive for the busy summer season.
Visiting Europe and Asia during the shoulder season of late summer and early fall may provide lower rates and pleasant weather.
While airfare for domestic flights has decreased, hotel costs in some cities like New York and Miami have increased significantly.
