Tourism, 20.6 million departures between January and March - Last minute. After the resumption of Christmas and New Year - despite over 300,000 last minute cancellations due to the flu.
Short trips - almost two thirds of the total - and overnight stays in tourist accommodation facilities preferred by over half of travellers. For holidays of 7 days or more, even if the hotel remains the first solution (for 2 out of 10 Italians), followed by second homes or the hospitality of friends and relatives.
