Budget travelers keep finding cheaper trips as prices rise

CNBC Economy says budget travelers are increasingly looking beyond luxury while travel costs climb.

Rising travel prices are not stopping budget-minded vacationers, according to CNBC Economy, which points to a shift in how people plan trips.

The outlet says the travel industry has been focusing more on luxury, but thriftier travelers are still finding ways to get away despite higher costs.

CNBC Economy frames the trend as ongoing, with budget travelers using lower-cost lodging and options like hostels to keep trips within reach.
