- British Airways Holidays has unveiled its list of the 25 most searched for destinations for 2025 travel, spotlighting this year’s biggest movers, shakers, and exciting new entries.
- British Airways and British Airways Holidays have enticing offers on flights and holiday packages to these destinations and many more, in the ‘End of Summer Sale’.
The Voice of Chandigarh News: As the ‘End of Summer Sale’ launches, British Airways Holidays has identified the most sought-after destinations for 2025 holidays so far and delves into the movers and shakers over the last 12 months.
The never-ending allure of the Big Apple means New York has retained the top spot once again for 2025. Meanwhile, Phuket and Bangkok appear to be riding the wave of excitement surrounding the upcoming third season of an Emmy-winning TV comedy-drama, securing them as potential holiday hotspots for next year. They rank 16th and 20th respectively.
There are also some new additions that have captured the imagination of UK travellers. Nashville is a new entry at number 22, perhaps fuelled by the resurgence of country music, while Corfu follows at 23 after a flurry of new hotel openings. Australia sneaks in at number 25 to round off the list.
Los Angeles has an unparalleled line up of world-class sporting events on the horizon, potentially driving the destination’s recent rise through the ranks, and Grenada seems to have captured the attention of viewers of a recent popular TV show, as it jumps up a staggering five places.
The top five destinations are listed below, and the full list can be seen here.
- New York: Retains the top spot once again
- Orlando: Also a non-mover
- Las Vegas: Climbs one spot to take the bronze position
- Maldives: Drops down one place to just miss out on a podium finish
- Barbados: Another destination which has climbed the list by one place
