New York City’s Vaccine Requirements Attract Tourists Looking for Safer Vacation

Fear of the coronavirus is putting a damper on the holiday weekend, as airlines report a big drop in passengers compared to 2019. While air travel is down, travel by car is on par with the norm. 43 million people are expected to head to classic vacation destinations like Orlando, Florida, and Ocean City, Maryland. New York City is also on the list of most popular destinations, because it has one of the highest vaccination rates in the country, and vaccines are required for most indoor activities.
