In fact, with the release of its "Travelnomics Economic Stimulus Guide: A Report on the Destinations That Need Your Money the Most," the leading U.S. travel search engine is advising exactly the opposite. The U.S. report and Global report are available for free download at Cheapflights.com.
Melanie Nayer, consumer travel expert at Cheapflights.com, commented: "Just because a specific place is struggling at a macro level should not diminish its status as a vacation destination. For example, Michigan's economy is sagging but remains a perfect spot for winter sports enthusiasts with ice boating, ice fishing, skiing and snowboarding. Now is the time to turn your attention to The Crystal Mountain Resort, for instance, as deals are in abundance."
Recent reports from Forbes and CNN have identified the global and domestic economies hit hardest by the recession and those facing declining tax revenues, rising unemployment, increased inflation and expanding budget gaps. Despite the economic crisis, these countries and U.S. states offer a fascinating mix of cultural and scenic attractions. From Iceland to Venezuela, Rhode Island to California, Cheapflights.com is highlighting a rare opportunity for consumers to explore new destinations, find new deals and provide local economies with some much needed economic stimulus.
"Iceland was once considered one of the most expensive countries to visit," Nayer continued. "But with the dramatic collapse of the Krona last year, it's suddenly a very affordable destination for travelers to explore. The scenery is amazing -- geysers, glaciers, volcanic landscapes and the Northern Lights -- and now is the time to take advantage."
