For those budget conscious travels this spring break, some good news: The price increase of spring break flights is nothing compared to the surge in egg prices. Domestic airfare has only seen a slight uptick – and international flights are actually cheaper than last year. So while breakfast might cost you more, spring break travel is still within reach.
Here’s what’s trending for spring break 2025:
- Ditch the crowds. Travelers are swapping packed hotspots for under-the-radar escapes (think Tulum over Cancún, and Tirana over Rome).
- International trips are cheaper. Airfare is down 3% and hotel rates have dropped 2%. Domestic travel prices? Holding steady. Pro tip: Save the splurging for spring break fun – set a Price Alert to track fares before they spike.
- Need inspo? Trending now: Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic, Casablanca, and Maui. Best beach deals? St. Kitts, Long Beach and St. Lucia. Africa is also having a moment, with searches up 6% from last spring break.
- The usual suspects are still thriving. Orlando, Vegas, Cancún, Tokyo, and Miami are still ruling the spring break charts.
- When to book? 3-4 weeks out for domestic, at least 3 weeks for international.
