#Summer vacation stays are quickly selling out

Book now or forever hold your peace.

People are so desperate to get out of the house after a year of quarantine that, according to a new report from Forbes, top hotels, rental homes and resorts are already booked up for summer through Labor Day weekend.

“The pent-up demand is real,” Betsy O’Rourke, CMO for Xanterra, the country’s largest national park concessions management company told the magazine. “We’ve all been sequestered for a year, and many of our guests have saved money, so the desire to travel along with the funds to pay for it are combining for a swift recovery for our cruise, tour and train brands.”

“Many of our top vacation destinations currently have double the reservations for June, July and August 2021 compared to what was booked at this time in 2019,” Natalia Sutin, the vice president of revenue management at Vacasa, a vacation rental platform, told Forbes.

Meanwhile, if you got a place you may want to book your rental car now.

“We’re telling customers to book six to eight weeks in advance,” Jonathan Weinberg, the CEO of the rental car booking site AutoSlash, said. “Even before they nail down their flight and hotel.”

And beware of massive crowds in Las Vegas, Miami, and Orlando — the top three destinations according to Hopper.
