St. Louis Post-Dispatch
TripAdvisor.com says Internet searches about travel to Mexico have dropped 50 percent in the past week, apparently because of concern about swine flu.
In contrast, inquiries about Caribbean travel have increased about 30 percent over the same period.
Trip.advisor also said it had conducted a site poll of 2,259 respondents in the past week and found that 23 percent said they planned to wear masks as a safety precaution when traveling.
Sixty-four percent said they would not wear masks, and 13 percent had no travel plans.
