If they're not going to a beach in Mexico, Thanksgiving travelers in the U.S. tend to prioritize bustling cities and picturesque destinations with plenty of attractions, according the 2023 Allianz Partners Top 10 Thanksgiving Destination Index. "No matter where you're headed this Thanksgiving, it's important to keep in mind that this travel period is historically one of the busiest of the entire year for U.S. airports, and with increased numbers of travelers comes an increased possibility of travel delays," Daniel Durazo, director of external communications at Allianz Partners USA, said in a press release. "One of the best ways to successfully navigate significant delays this season is by purchasing a travel insurance policy with travel delay coverage which can help with a range of unpredicted costs from lost baggage to reimbursement for meals, accommodations and transportation incurred while delayed." Allianz Partners takes into consideration more than 800,000 Thanksgiving travel itineraries to deduct the holiday's most popular travel destinations. The slideshow above indicates the U.S. cities where travelers are most likely to sojourn during this year's Thanksgiving holiday weekend. Outside of the U.S., Allianz noted that Cancun, San Jose del Cabo and Puerto Vallarta are most likely to draw travelers from the U.S. during the long holiday weekend. See also: |
