Mississippi ain’t about that international travel.
Illinois is high because flights at Ohare cost so much.
Confirmed – from a Californian dropping upwards of $15k on a trip next year ):
I find it funny that Americans use kilo with money but then they don’t know what kilo means with other things.
It’s ironic that the places you’d most want to get the fuck out of spend the least on travel.
These all seem insanely low. The plane ticket and hotel would cost $1k by themselves, so how can any of these numbers be below that?
I’m guessing this is far more indicative of the percentage of the population born outside the country, and / or whose parents live outside the country, than anything else.
Florida has a lot of expat snowbirds, though slightly less this year than last, which in a shocking coincidence, happens at the same time real estate prices are tanking (in fairness, there are several other reasons, but, discretionary travelers using their discretion to steer clear is something the state does at its own hazard)
Why do people spend so much money getting away from blue states? /s
I would love to leave Illinois but family…. Any way, we spent 20k this year to Europe, with one more trip to go, so 25k or so.
Any correlation with direct trans Atlantic, trans Pacific and South American flights? If you live by the coast you are more likely to fly out of country (max 10 to 12 hour flight).
