01 Julio 2024 - 10:05AM
As the nation eagerly prepares for Independence Day celebrations,
prominent online travel agency CheapOair releases its latest travel
data, showcasing the most popular destinations for travelers
departing from major U.S. cities. CheapOair reveals the top
destinations from five origin cities: Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas,
Washington, D.C., and New York City. These insights reflect
travelers’ keen interest in Fourth of July excursions, both
domestic and foreign.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) anticipates a
significant surge in travel during this time. According to a June
24th announcement, the TSA expects to screen more than 32 million
individuals from Thursday, June 27 through Monday, July 8, which
represents a 5.4 percent increase over 2023.
Complementing the TSA’s projections, CheapOair’s data science
team provides an overview of travel trends based on bookings for
Independence Day travel for July 1 through July 8, reflecting the
diverse preferences of U.S. travelers.

at local parks, beaches, and BBQs, many will choose to expand their
horizons and explore distant locales. Notable across all the lists
