YMT Vacations Posts 20 Percent Gain in Select U.S. Itineraries

california redwoodsYMT Vacations reports that several of the company’s U.S. itineraries are almost 20 percent ahead of last year. YMT credits the boost in part to declining domestic airfares to popular U.S. destinations, as reported recently in the Wall Street Journal.

“Due to higher airfares for international and other long haul destinations, we are seeing our more budget-conscious guests opting for U.S. based vacations,” says Jerre Fuqua, president of YMT Vacations. “While space is filling up fast, there is still time to get a great deal on a summer vacation.”
