Everyone has a favorite place, a life-changing memory they can\u2019t relive anywhere else, or loved ones who are far away. With our \u201cDon\u2019t Skip the Trip\u201d campaign, we\u2019re reminding you to return to the destinations and people you miss most.<\/p>\n
In the 2015 Vacation Deprivation study, researchers at Expedia found that Americans left about 500 million vacation days unused. That same study also found that 92% of Americans report feeling happier after they get away. So, what does that mean? We\u2019re convinced life is better when you use your PTO or spare time to its fullest potential… but letting yourself off the hook may be easier said than done.<\/p>\n
Our \u201cDon\u2019t Skip the Trip\u201d campaign was inspired by those 500 million unused vacation days. Just think of all the skipped holidays at home, lost weekends in favorite hideaways, and awesome memories you aren\u2019t creating when you sacrifice vacation for more<\/em> work. To rally you to take those hard-earned days off, we\u2019ve hatched a new Facebook integration that connects travelers with custom flights deals to their favorite places based on check-ins.<\/p>\n As part of the campaign, we made a short video to show you exactly what it looks like when you don\u2019t treat yourself to a change of scenery.<\/p>\n
