KAYAK北美地區市場營銷副總裁戴維?索羅米圖對《漫旅》雜志（Travel + Leisure）表示：“這本指南比去年的更加細化。”這是該公司第三次公布旅游指南，指南所依據的是超過1.5萬億條年度搜索結果。“我們恢復了預訂時間部分，其中提供了在世界不同地區能夠享受到預訂優惠的高水平時間框架。”

最佳旅游目的地

這份旅游指南公布了不同類別的2017年最佳旅游目的地：熱門、最受歡迎、海灘、省錢和家庭。

KAYAK公布的2017年熱門旅游目的地為：

1. 古巴哈瓦那

2. 冰島雷克雅未克

3. 新西蘭奧克蘭

4. 印尼巴厘島

5. 日本東京

6. 哥倫比亞卡塔赫納

7. 葡萄牙里斯本

8. 哥倫比亞麥德林

9. 加拿大卡爾加里

10. 澳大利亞悉尼

索羅米圖表示：“我們認為，憑借有利的匯率，會有更多歐洲旅游目的地上榜，但事實上并非如此。”去年，有6座歐洲城市進入了10大熱門旅游目的地。相反，因為奧巴馬總統努力緩和了美國與島國古巴的關系，因此古巴重新獲得了關注，成為榜首，緊隨其后的冰島雷克雅未克，近幾年也得到了越來越多游客的關注。

美元兌歐元的匯率本可能對其他旅游目的地產生影響，但索羅米圖表示：“在熱門海灘中，有兩個加勒比海島——馬提尼克和瓜德羅普，均屬于歐元區。”

若想逃離冬季的氣候，KAYAK為你提供了下列熱門海灘目的地：

1. 夏威夷茂伊島

2. 馬提尼克

3. 瓜德羅普

4. 泰國普吉島

5. 新西蘭奧克蘭

6. 印尼巴厘島

7. 斯里蘭卡科倫坡

8. 馬爾代夫

9. 日本沖繩島

10. 澳大利亞悉尼

預訂時間

KAYAK的旅游指南中最有價值的部分，則是關于不同旅游目的地預訂時間的信息。

若要前往北美，前往大陸旅游目的地的機票價格，平均提前兩至四周最為優惠。前往中南美洲、歐洲、非洲、亞洲和中東的機票價格，在出行前兩至三個月預定最佳。

但這些只是總體的推薦信息，所以KAYAK還提供了一個工具，可根據出發地機場和預期旅游目的地，提供更具體的信息。 (財富中文網)

“The [guide] is a bit more granular than last year,” David Solomito, KAYAK's vice president of marketing in North America, told Travel + Leisure. This is the third time the company has released the guide, which is based on more than 1.5 billion annual searches. “We've added back our when to book section, which gives high level time frames for the sweet spot to book to different parts of the world.”

TOP DESTINATIONS

The travel guide identifies the top destinations for 2017 in several categories: trending, most popular, beach, wallet-friendly, and family.

KAYAK's top trending destinations for 2017 are:

1. Havana, Cuba

2. Reykjavik, Iceland

3. Auckland, New Zealand

4. Bali, Indonesia

5. Tokyo, Japan

6. Cartagena, Colombia

7. Lisbon, Portugal

8. Medellín, Colombia

9. Calgary, Canada

10. Sydney, Australia

“We thought with the favorable exchange rate, there'd be a lot more European destinations on the list, and there really weren't,” said Solomito. Last year, six European cities were in the top 10 trending destinations. Instead, Cuba—enjoying renewed attention after President Obama worked to thaw the relationship between the U.S. and the island nation—came in at the top, following by Reykjavik, Iceland, which has also seen increased interest in recent years.

The dollar-to-euro exchange rate may have had an affect on other destinations, though: “When you look at trending beaches, two of the Caribbean islands—Martinique and Guadeloupe—are on the euro,” said Solomito.

In case you're looking to escape some winter weather, the full list of trending beach destinations according to KAYAK includes:

1. Maui, Hawaii

2. Martinique

3. Guadeloupe

4. Phuket, Thailand

5. Auckland, New Zealand

6. Bali, Indonesia

7. Colombo, Sri Lanka

8. Maldives

9. Okinawa, Japan

10. Sydney, Australia

WHEN TO BOOK

Among the KAYAK guide's most useful features is information on when to book, depending on your destination.

For travelers in North America, flights to destinations on the continent are priced best, on average, two to four weeks out. Flights to Central and South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Middle East, however, are all best booked two to three months before travel.

Those are just general recommendations, though, so KAYAK has included a tool that gives more specific information depending on your home airport and desired destination.
