Once again Swifties are to thank for another economy boost! This time when it comes to European air travel. According to CNN, United Airlines has stated that demand for flights to Lisbon, Portugal, and places where Taylor Swift will be performing her “Eras Tour,” went up 25% for this weekend compared to last summer — and the surge is expected to continue across the different dates and upcoming destinations.

It’s also important to note that concert ticket prices can greatly cheaper in these other countries, adding to the demand for travel there. Delta airlines is also reporting a surge, as they are prepared with ‘its largest-ever international summer schedule by adding destinations and restoring routes that were cut because of the pandemic.’

Would you fly to another country to see her? I think that sounds like an INCREDIBLE vacation!
