Choosing Travel for Special Occasions

]]> 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.

Champagne on the beach 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?
