Even if you didn't notice it, the truth is that spring is almost by the corner and we should definitely start to plan our parties so that we can start to celebrate it! In fact, I recently found an msnbc.com review which I would like you to read just below:
"
NEW YORK - College students don't seem to be planning staycations for spring break.
Bookings to popular beach destinations are strong, according to travel companies, and volunteering vacations continue to gain momentum.
"Typically the student business is more resilient to the economy because it's like a once-in-a-lifetime trip," said Jason Chute, director of operations for StudentCity.com. "A lot of times kids will go no matter what."
Here's how students will be spending their break.
International beaches
Cancun and Jamaica are top destinations for spring breakers, according to Patrick Evans of STA Travel. Some 30,000 revelers are expected to visit the beach spot in Mexico this year. The same number came to Cancun last year, according to Quintana Roo's Tourism Office.
Also popular is Acapulco, Mexico, according to Chute. Acapulco has some of the hottest night clubs, and many are open all night, he said.
Scott Schechter, 22, a Boston University senior, said he was looking for that big-party atmosphere. "Generally, when I think of spring break, most of the nice spring break locations that aren't trans-Atlantic would be in Mexico," he said. "The idea of traveling outside the country makes it a little more exciting."
Perhaps because of the economy, more students are choosing the Party Bus this year, said Evans. The bus departs from locations in California, Texas, Arizona and New Mexico to Mazatlan, Mexico. Prices for the seven-night trip (two nights on the bus), start at $300 per person on StudentCity.com.
