Traveling by car offers savvy and spontaneous travelers the flexibility and the ability to seize the best deals on last-minute vacation rental stays to avoid high airline fares, packed planes, and canceled flights, and provides a smaller travel footprint.
Whimstay data shows more than 70 percent of Whimstay’s customers are looking to book travel within the next seven days and are searching for 3-night, last-minute stays on average, which aligns with the company’s offering of the best last-minute deals for vacation rentals.
