It should come as no surprise to Instagram users to see Bora Bora
head up a list of top-trending destinations for millennials in 2019.
After looking at the most popular destinations being followed or
“watched” by its millennial users, flight tracker and booking app Hopper
found that Bora Bora experienced the biggest spike in interest for 2019
(24 percent increase from last year), followed by St. Martin and Aspen
Colorado.
Hopper users can set trip “watches” up to one year in advance. The
average Hopper user sets up watches up to 90 days in advance of when
they would typically begin seriously doing their travel homework.
With more than 1.2 million posts tagged with the hashtag #borabora,
and Instagram feeds of beautiful, young influencers posing against
palm-fringed beaches and overwater villas, French Polynesia has become a
trendy bucket-list destination for globetrotting millennials.
Meanwhile, if you've got a trip coming up, Hopper's data suggests
booking a flight now in January while domestic round-trip airfares are
at their lowest, before rising back up in February.
