Though many Americans are not ready or able to take a trip just yet, there is a wealth of information that says simply planning a vacation can increase happiness. In fact, 97% of survey respondents say having a trip planned makes them happier - and that's exactly why we encourage Americans to take action this year. MRA is excited to express its support of National Plan for Vacation Day (NPVD), an annual day set aside for Americans to plan their vacation for the entire year.
