Composite = Cost (35%) + Trend (35%) + Weather (30%). Cost = percentile rank across the 95 destinations we track. Weather = typical year-round comfort from real climate normals (temperature + rainfall, 2014–2023). Trend = direction and magnitude of pricing vs ~4 weeks ago. Date-specific crowd + weather signals layer on when your trip has dates; per-venue “busyness” is intentionally omitted — no honest data source for it.
