The US will have a busy vacation season this summer as cities make a strong comeback, according to Stephen Kaufer,
chief executive officer of TripAdvisor Inc.
“Now we have a lot more activities all around the country, and it’s not just outdoors. The cities are making a very real comeback,†Kaufer said on CBS’s “Face the Nationâ€.
Hotel searches on TripAdvisor have gone up and bookings of experiences are going strong, he said, adding that people also plan to take longer vacations and spend more money on their trips.
The Transportation Security Administration reported that it screened nearly 2 million people at airports, before the Memorial Day weekend. That’s the most since the Covid-19 pandemic started in March, signalling a rebound of travel as people take advantage of relaxed restrictions and expanding vaccinations.
