RICHMOND, Va., May 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- According to new data from travel insurance and travel assistance company Allianz Partners USA's Top Summer Travel Destinations Report, Seattle and Cancun are the top travel destinations for Americans looking to get away this summer. Most travelers are planning to stay in the U.S. with 71% of itineraries booked for domestic destinations and 29% for international trips*.

"American travelers are starting to dethaw from a long winter and are flocking to sunny beaches across the U.S. and abroad," says Daniel Durazo, director of external communications at Allianz Partners USA. "Summer travel is often the highlight of travelers' year with everyone excited for some well-deserved time away. No one wants an unexpected challenge to take away from that excitement – that's why it's critical to have travel insurance. Travel insurance takes the stress out of those unexpected moments and safeguards your trips by protecting you from covered unexpected trip cancellations, delays, medical emergencies and even lost or delayed baggage.
