SAMANTHA BROWN: PASSPORT TO GREAT WEEKENDS
EXPLORES THE GROWING
WEEKEND GETAWAY TRAVEL TREND
Be it longer workdays and work weeks, school obligations
that make it difficult to pull the kids out of class,
or just the hectic pace at which most Americans are
living their lives, travel research shows that more
and more Americans are finding it harder to plan a traditional
one or two-week vacation. Consequently,
getting away for the weekend has become an increasingly
popular way for Americans to plan and enjoy pleasure
travel.
Travel Channel host Samantha Brown delves
into this growing trend in her latest installment to her
Passport series, SAMANTHA BROWN: PASSPORT TO GREAT WEEKENDS.
PASSPORT TO GREAT WEEKENDS provides viewers with travel
suggestions and tips to create the perfect weekend escape
in destinations around the world. Taking viewers along
with her on a hand-picked itinerary of weekend travel,
Samantha reveals both the international and domestic destinations
that are perfectly suited for a weekend adventure including
locations like New Orleans, Las Vegas, New England, Wyoming,
Cabo San Lucas, San Francisco, Orlando, Austin, New York
City, Santa Fe, Paris, Washington, D.C., and Tuscany.
Among this impressive list, Samantha identifies the best
spots for a girls only weekend, family getaways, romantic
trips, and weekends planned around themes like cruising,
city slicker escapes, music lovers, ski retreats or soaking
in the sun at the beach.
