Travel Is a Priority
A recent December 2023 survey from justfly.com found that Americans are prioritizing travel and curbing spending on other purchases to invest in experiences.
"Americans will make travel accessible at all costs. Even during challenging economic times, the majority of those surveyed were willing to make financial concessions to make their planned trip possible by choosing to spend less on groceries and going out to altering their travel dates and accommodations than to not go at all," said justfly.com CEO Henri Chelhot.
Justfly.com is dedicated to making travel accessible, enabling more people to visit new places and explore new cultures and helping travelers eleveate the stresses that can occur on vacation.
"Travel is powerful. It creates memories and enriching experiences," said Chelhot.

Local Experiences
One of the ways that travelers can craft a memorable trip without breaking the bank is to get the most out of each destination by engaging with locals. Travelers can save by using local means of transportation like buses, trains and subways to really get a sense for a metropolis.?
"Discovering the nuances of local transport not only enhances your journey but also provides an authentic connection with the locale," Chelhot told SimpleFlying.
Having an open mind and being flexible is another way to improve the travel experience. Expect that there will be some bumps in the road and you may be pleasantly surprised by what you learn along the way.
"Be flexible, embrace the unexpected, and be willing to step out of your comfort zone," said Chelhot. "Every trip has its highs and lows, but its these experiences that make for unforgettable stories."?
