The results of a test to assess the external validity of a stated preference model of destination choice in the context of leisure trips are reported. This model differs from conventional stated preference models in transportation in that it incorporates variety seeking and seasonality in specification of the choice model. The results indicate that the model performed reasonably well; seasonality is predicted quite well, but in some specific situations the model overpredicts observed variety-seeking choices.
