Spring holidays – headache or opportunities?

The universities will close during the upcoming spring months, and thousands of students will descend on sun -filled beaches in the USA to take a break from their studies. While the season of the local communities and the opportunity for students to relax and offer economic opportunities, we see the specific risks and challenges related to the spring holidays and the insurance industry to alleviate them.

Spring break Post-Pandemic

The travel industry has been booming since the Covid 19 pandemic, and Jeremy Murchland, President of Seven Corner’s Travel Insurance, said that all signs indicate a complete impact postemic for college spring.

“As a population group, which often sees itself as invincible, their willingness to travel return faster than with older travelers,” he said. Last year, however, there was a shift in which Spring Breaker travel in college age: “This has less to do with pandemic and more with specific goals that actively try to prevent this kind of visitors.”

After a season with high reports on crime and drugs, two of the most popular US goals – Miami Beach and Fort Lauderdale – set themselves to limit the number of college jumping from Florida. While the efforts between the travelers were not stopped, Miami Beach recorded a certain reduction in crowds, the number of weapons confiscated and alcohol -related arrests.

However, Murchland said that students who decided not to go to Miami Beach found other goals instead that were also known as party friendliness, including Panama City Beach and Daytona Beach in Florida and South Padre Island in Texas.

“Outside of the United States, a large number of spring breakers from the university still book trips to Cancun, Mexico and Punta Cana, Dominican Republic,” he added.

While College Spring Breakers may not have changed their habits after pandemic, the industry has observed more changes in families.

The political price usually depends more on the age of the travelers, the duration of the trip and the total insurance costs

“In the years since pandemic, families are increasingly looking for spring break destinations that enable them to travel with a small budget. This makes them more open to alternative websites that usually do not attract large crowds and therefore have more affordable prices, ”said Murchland.

“The popular Spring Break destinations in the United States in recent years include St. George, Utah, a” Gateway City “for several national and state parks, and Orange Beach, Alabama, a most popular alternative to Florida’s beaches that may not be suitable for young families,” he added.

Jenna Hummer, director of public relations at Squaremouth, listed the following five best Spring Break targets from 2025:

1. The USA
2. Mexico
3. The Bahamas
4. The Dominican Republic
5. Costa Rica.

Daniel Durazo, external communication director of Allianz Partner USA, said: “Orlando, Florida and Cancun, Mexico, remain fan favorites for the American’s spring breakers, while Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, for a strong comeback of the international travel plan, which was dominated by Mexico destinations at the beginning of this year.

“The Americans do not have to go far to get away, since the Allianz Partners’ Usa-Reiserouuten, which was checked in 2024, applies to three quarters (76%) for domestic US trips and 24% for international trips,” he added.

With regard to the expenditure, Allianz found that the Americans had planned to issue an average of 4,681 US dollars for their spring holiday trips and to increase expenses by 7.9% compared to the same period in 2023 ($ 4,339 US dollars), and found that nobody seems to slow down than the spring 2025 approaches.
