Spring Break Trips – Top 5 Packages For 2009
Spring break trips come in many forms. A rapid erosion of Internet discover only 2 days of weekend packages, 4 nights on vacation, and 7 night packages starting the day after their last class. We have prepared A list of the top 5 spring break packages based on historical data from 2002 to 2008.
The number 5 on the list is Bermuda. A great island destination year after year. Most Bermuda spring break trips is in line for 7-nights. It's a bit further than most holiday destinations spring, so it assumes you want to spend more time on the island once you arrive. The price has always been an important issue when Bermuda is offered as a holiday destination spring. Air / Hotel packages to Bermuda are usually very expensive. Most college spring break that mark off the list price, and sometimes the duration. Many students can not spend your vacation most of spring break (8-days/7-nights) at a resort across the ocean hundreds of miles away. Many have things to do on the weekend before or after their week of spring break begins.
Number 4 on the list is Acapulco. This was not considered a hot spot for spring break until just a few years ago (2004 to be exact). Most travel agencies do not offer a Acapulco spring break package prior to 2004 because many of the hotels there was a strict "no spring breakers" policy. This ended in 2005, when many of the hotels decided to allow students under 25 to register in hotels during the month of March. He did, however, share the same problem that affected most Bermuda spring break packages. The price was too high and most packages to Acapulco were 7 nights.
It comes in third destinations are Florida's spring break. I'm talking about Panama City, Myrtle Beach and Daytona. This has been a spring break hot for years, long before 2002. It's cheap, can be reached by car, and do not need a passport. An interesting trend is the age demographic from 2002 to 2008 destinations Florida spring. It seems that every year the students are younger. The spring 20 until the break college crowd has migrated to island destinations, while the high school students spring break have moved to Florida for the last few years during spring break. I guess this is good news or bad news depending on who you are.
We're up to number two on the list. Coming in second is Cancun. Yes I know I kept waiting and here is number two. The domain king over spring break down in the second place due to airfare prices, heavy restrictions by the seasons, and an increase in crime across Mexico in general. Hotels have seen it all and do not take more. Each year hundreds of students from Spring Break kick me out of the hotel room due to bad spring break. Many also spend a night or two in the local lock and / or a fine of hundreds of dollars. Crimes of theft, rape, murder and kidnapping have been on a steady rise in Mexico since 2000. Most parents and students are aware of these facts and are steering clear of this spring break destination as a result.
Here we are at number one and the winner is … the Bahamas. The problems that have plagued the other spring break hot spots have caused college students spring break to migrate to the Bahamas. What they found when they arrived was a hidden gem. Spring Break Cruises in Fort Lauderdale leave daily in March and often include hotel accommodations for 4-7 nights. The Bahamas consist of a series of beautiful islands a few miles off the coast of Florida. The parents love its proximity, the students love its price. A package on spring break cruise is usually under $ 600 and the hotels welcome college spring break with open arms. The only downside to this spring break destination is availability. The hotels are seeing more and more students come to the Bahamas during March and April of each year. This is causing a total sell many months before the Spring Break each year. The key to getting a room at the best resorts and space aboard ship is to book a Bahamas package many months in advance.
Spring Break 2009 may be the best ever! We hope that this statistical information will help make it happen.
