We are back to Europe for number 3, and Spoiler, it is your favorite European city for Vespa rides, soft gelato and Alfresco Pasta -Diners Serenaded by passing buskers.
Although it might be a piece to say that Rome is on the bucket list of every American traveler, it is certainly high in Delta customers, as it is in the top three for the third consecutive year.
And let’s be honest, it’s not like it is leaving quickly.
From the historical attraction of the Colosseum and the accompanying Roman Forum to the Bohemian streets of Trastevere, where every step seems to lead to a different alley flanked by Pastel -colored buildings and wine barsAnd oh, the Vatican, it’s where dreams are made.

Aaaahh, the city of light … The beautiful Eiffel Tower, Grand Boulevards, Leafy Gardens strewn with graceful fountains, a majestic (and new reformed) cathedral of Notre-Dame, and the rows, in rows, in rows of Haussmann buildings that would easily be classified as national monuments.
But after all, this is Paris. It is exactly where people live.


I love it or hate it, it cannot be denied that the capital of France cannot be matched in terms of architectural value and the art is concerned, and based on the figures from Delta, Americans are certainly still in line to see the Mona Lisa Regardless of the bad representative, the French get on social media because of their sparkle.
