Advance bookings to Europe are up by 7% - 9%
Advance bookings for vacation travel to Europe are up by 7% to 9%.
Since we promote rail passes & tickets in European countries we find it interesting that many more people this year are buying individual rail tickets rather then rail passes in Italy, France & Europe in general. Nobody in the industry is quite sure why this is happening. The exception to this is Switzerland where Swiss Rail Passes always out sell train tickets...even the locals use rail passes. Buying a Swiss Pass from the Swiss rail companies like our http://SwissRailPasses (and others) is such a bargain because it lets you travel not only on trains but also the lake steamers (boats) and buses plus gives you entrance to over 400 museums all at no extra cost. Where as with the Eurail pass for Switzerland it is only good for travel on certain trains. No boats No buses No museums. Up until a couple years ago, car rentals in Europe were quite popular. But this year like last, the prices of car rentals and gas have gone through the roof. If you live or have connections in the larger European cities you can still find reasonable price day-rental cars but these are not generally available outside the local areas. Remember September and October are two of the best months to travel in Europe. Bill http://SwissRailPasses.com http://ItalyTrainTickets.org http://FranceTrainTravel.org http://EuropePass.org |
