High cost does not seem to be dampening demand when it comes to travel down south.

The CAA says interest in flights to warm destinations remains high, especially in Newfoundland and Labrador.

CAA Director of Social Responsibility and Advocacy, Julia Kent says the number one destination for travelers eager to escape snow and colder temperatures is Orlando, Florida.

Not only because of Disney World, but because it’s a hub for other sunshine destinations. It is also the main departure port for cruise ship tours which are becoming an increasingly popular vacation option.

Kent says among NL travelers, destinations involving direct flights are often the most popular.
