On this episode we dig deep into spring-travel trends with Hayley Berg, a researcher at the travel company Hopper. Among our topics: Where people are going in March and April – Orlando and Vegas, yes, but also some places that might surprise you. How much people are willing to spend, and how airfare compares to previous years. We talk about types of spring break travelers.

And we talk about this year's unusual trends: Japan, the Paris Olympics, solar eclipse travel, set-jetting and dupes.
