Recovering economy boosts long haul travel
Thanks to the strongly improving German economy, consumers also are more interested in doing a long haul
vacation again. According to a recent survey by ADAC (German AAA), 71.2% of the German population is
planning to do a longer vacation in 2011. This is an increase of 6% over last year.
60% of the ADAC members expressed their will to still do a vacation this year (as of July).
Even among people who consider themselves to be in a bad economic situation personally, still over 41% are
planning to do a vacation – compared to 35% in 2009.
According to the survey, travellers are more and more split into two different groups, where either the vacation
destination is crucial or the budget is the deciding factor.
New TSA regulation causes irritations
A recent article on a new regulation for US flights causes irritations among German media and consumers. The
news said that passengers are now forbid to stand up during the flights and gather in the aisle during flights.
It has not been officially confirmed yet, as also the airlines themselves gave contradictory statements, but this
news was another bad influence on the US as a travel destination after the recent entry of the ESTA fee, the new
Secure Flight regulations and the German airline tax.
