Find luxury hotels and hotel deals in your destination at Perfect Escapes.
While many Americans seem to be tightening their belts when it comes to planning vacations, cutting back on everything from the time spent, to the distance of the destination and types of activities they do, luxury travelers seem to have adopted a different attitude.
The Suite Life blog wants to know, has the economy made you reconsider or change your travel plans? Or is it business (or leisure) as usual for you?
A recent report from a travel research company found that luxury travelers are more or less going about their travel plans as usual, despite the slowing economy.
However, there is one slight difference to typical luxury vacations,Chanel Handbags, which is that more travelers are requesting learning experiences on their trips. Personalized butler service while lying on a beach sipping a custom cocktail may be part of the vacation, but it is not all. Cooking classes, adventure activities, and language programs are just a few examples of the trip add-ons luxury travelers are now booking.
Luxury travelers are not canceling their vacations, nor are they staying closer to home. Exotic African safaris and one-of-a-kind experiences remain a top interest, despite their hefty price tag. Having worked hard to secure these vacations, luxury travelers keep their economic worries at bay (even though they are real worries) in order to experience the trip of their dreams.
