As the United States enters the summertime, Americans are eager to travel. Kids are out of school, some employees will choose to leave work early on Fridays, and several national holidays are coming up, meaning time off work.
With summer being a prime time to travel, many people are planning vacations with their friends and family. Airbnb, the popular site that hosts travel lodging listings, recently released the top places to travel in summer 2023.
Since many are eager to travel, it’s important to understand which cities are popular, so that you can get your accommodations booked earlier. Although it’s unexpected, Airbnb revealed that Louisville, Kentucky is projected to be the most popular travel destination this summer.
There are diverse attractions in Louisville. For example, there’s the Muhammad Ali Center, the Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory, and the Kentucky Derby Museum.
Therefore, if you’re looking for exciting pastimes like sports, museums, or other activities, Louisville is a great place to visit. There are incredible Airbnb listings in the area, too.
For those who want luxury listings, there are six-bedroom options, three-bedroom options, more intimate cottage listings, and more. No matter how many you’re traveling with, you can find great options.
The company predicts that over 300 million people are going to travel using Airbnb’s services, which is a substantial number. In fact, as of now, users have booked in around 72,000 cities.
Airbnb is known for its liberal policies regarding travel and working from home. The CEO, Brian Chesky, believes that it is hypocritical for CEOs to mandate their employees to work from an office in a post-Zoom world.
We can hope that Chesky’s viewpoints become the status quo. But for now, whether you’re traveling for a long weekend or weeks-at-a-time, book sooner rather than later, especially if you’re heading to Louisville.
