The importance of Christmas is not only shown in festive traditions, but also in the lively travel of the Austrians, as a survey by today. Every year, many families and friends get into the car to spend the holidays together. Atmospheric music and popular Christmas carols are an integral part of the car rides. Chris Rea's classic "Driving Home for Christmas" inspires 38 percent of those surveyed, but the undisputed favorite "Last Christmas" by Wham, in which 44 percent of Austrians sing along loudly. "Feliz Navidad" by José Feliciano is also very popular with 43 percent. These hits transform every car ride into an unforgettable experience and vote on the festive time.

The commercial aspect of the holidays should not be underestimated. According to wikipedia the "Christmas shopping season" begins in October, whereby countries like the USA and Canada react to customers with massive advertising measures. About a fifth of annual sales in retail falls during this time. While the expenses for gifts and decorations are increasing, diverse industries also benefit from transport to retail to the entertainment industry. The Christmas season has not only cultural, but also significant economic effects that many people concern about this season.

In addition, the survey results show that the younger generation is particularly enthusiastic about Christmas hits. Among the respondents under the age of 30 indicate the impressive 65 percent of participating in "All I Want for Christmas is You". These favorite melodies not only convey joy, but also create an unforgettable connection between travelers during the holidays, while the economic importance of this season underlines the results of the survey. The mixture of tradition, community and economic benefit makes Christmas at a unique time of the year.
