The Centers for Disease Control reports there are 109 confirmed cases of swine flu in the United States and one confirmed death. The outbreak has many vacationers worried about upcoming plans. Despite the mildness of the outbreak in the region, local travel agencies are busy reworking Mexican vacations and dealing with a number of calls about swine flu and its impact on travel plans.
World Travel Mates, in Matthews, is recommending other destinations.

From $455 one week stay, apartment for 2 persons, pool, walking distance to the ocean.
