Allianz found that about three-quarters (76%) of itineraries are for domestic travel and about a quarter (24%) are for international travel. Additionally, it found that Americans are spending an average of $4,681 on spring break travel, indicating a 7.9% increase in spending compared to the same period last year ($4,339 ).
“Americans are not only heading to warm-weather destinations, but they are also warming up their wallets in search of unforgettable spring break experiences,” said Daniel Durazo, director of external communications at Allianz Partners USA, in a communicated.
“It's important to create memories with family, and travel accidents can disrupt even the best-planned spring break trips. To avoid unwanted stress, a travel insurance policy is an important consideration, as it can reimburse you for covered trip cancellations and interruptions, travel delays, and unexpected illnesses or injuries,” Durazo added.
