2. Value: Retirees are less concerned with cost, and more concerned with getting value for their retirement dollars. 

3. City slickers: Retiree's love to experience major cities and often opt for multiple night stays to explore the city in depth. 

4. Traditional travel habits: In a recent study, retirees preferred to travel to places with excellent dining ( 70% ) and sightseeing ( 64% ) opportunities.

5. Learning opportunities: From cooking classes in Tuscany to wine appreciation in Australia, life-long learning through travel is as hot as Arizona in August.
