Dobbs said National has dete mined that the increase in reser vations is “new business.” “That's what we inten@éd,” ‘he said—"to go after people who $ probably would not make trips ¢ without special inducement.” uP He noted . that.

Now that they’: learning that it is a delightful summer vacationland, inexpen- sive, and can be reached in a few hours by transportation within their budget limits. they’re plan- ning their trips. Dobbs also pointed to the in- crease in three-week vacations a favoring the summer; trend to Florida. “The entire three weeks is cov. ered by National’s 21-day plan he said. “And for those with two- ck vacations, fast air transportation means they can enjoy three full week-ends at the vacation spot of their choice.” “Vacation travel -north from Florida also will receive impetu: from National’s summer far and their guests.
