According to sources Goa is the most preferred destination for people to spend their Easter weekend in India and this year, Easter is on April 1. Meanwhile the fare aggregate and travel meta search engine KAYAK compared last year's data with this year's searches for the Easter weekend.
Sources reported that there has been an almost 200% increase in travel searches for the upcoming Easter weekend compared to last year, with much of this trend driven by beach destination Goa. Moreover the coastal state has seen a massive increase of 1,655% this year in travel searches, which has seen it jump up seven places to become the overall top destination for Indians this Easter, followed by Bangkok.
Further this year's third most popular destination,
Hong Kong is another city experiencing a significant rise in Easter travel
searches, with an increase of 1,349%. Perhaps more surprising are the amount of
holidaymakers using the Easter holidays as a chance to travel great distances,
with San Francisco, Toronto and New York all among the top searched Easter
destinations this year.
