Do you plan a special trip, whether an exotic vacation or a weekend getaway, for those special occasions in your life? A 25th anniversary cruise, a romantic weekend for a proposal, or a girls getaway for a 30th birthday?
If you do, you’re not alone, as a recent survey commissioned by Disney just revealed.
What do people do to make a vacation extra special? Upgraded and special experiences topped the survey list:
- Enjoy a special meal (59 percent)
- Stay in nicer accommodations (35 percent)
- Group activities (35 percent)
- Buy souvenirs (34 percent)
- Special tours (27 percent)
- Private rooms at restaurants (23 percent)
I know I have taken special trips for occasions, including anniversaries, birthdays, reunions. And for those trips my habits correspond to the survey results – a special meal, maybe an upgrade to a suite, or some other special activity for our group.
Do you take vacations for a celebration? Do you make it extra special in one of these ways?
