Online travel agency CheapOair.com recently released data showing a nearly 50 percent increase in bookings to Tanzania compared to last year, followed closely by Turkey, Malaysia, Vietnam and Ecuador. The spike conveniently coincides with a significant dip in fares to each location. Round trip flights from New York City to Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania, are being offered at $1,112 on Turkish Airlines, which is also selling trips to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, for $889, according to CheapOair.com figures.
Though low cost is definitely a factor yet the appealing scenic beauty of these places plays a vital role. Each of these five destinations have all got some combination of culture and physical geography, or ancient language and striking landscape to compel travellers to visit these places.
Owing to political tensions, countries bordering Syria are seeing a drop-off in visitor interest, according to hotel search site Trivago.com. Site representatives recently released data showing a 79 percent decrease in travel interest to Lebanon compared to September 2012. Likewise, Cyprus, Israel and Jordan are exhibiting search drops of more than 30 percent, the report noted. But for the adventurous traveler, this could be a good thing. The average hotel price for rooms in Beirut also has sunk to $164 per night, according to Trivago.
