There is a light at the end of the Covid-19 tunnel for local travel agencies.

Many people have been actively planning their next big trip, and according to Amarillo’s Travel Network some are doing it last minute.

During the month of March, Honey Bee Travel Agency has done an average of 15 bookings a week, while Amarillo Travel Network has been booking three to eight reservations a day.

Travelers are also eyeing cruises, which many are rebooking for 2022.

Another thing on traveler’s minds is travel insurance.

Popular international destinations include Mexico, Hawaii and the Caribbean.

While nationally, Florida takes the lead.
