New York.– Mexico took four of the top 10 spots on a list of international destinations booked by agencies of the Travel Leaders company. The annual survey asked 452 Travel Leaders agents to name the top destinations for the fall, through Dec. 31, using booking data.
Mexico ranked highly despite concerns about flu and crime that hurt travel there last spring. Cancun came in as No. 2, Riviera Maya No. 3, cruises to Mexico were No. 7 and Playa del Carmen was No. 10.
London was not among the top 10 in last year’s survey but it rebounded to No. 6 this year, most likely due to a stronger U.S. dollar.
Caribbean cruises were first on the list and Mediterranean cruises were fourth. Rome came in at No. 5, while Montego Bay, Jamaica, got the eighth slot, and Punta Cana, in the Dominican Republic, was ninth.
