Are destination selection questions on topic?

Question

Are questions about destination selection on topic?

I can think of a few examples:-

Which ski resort in Switzerland is best for a 7 day stay if we are novice skiiers?
Which island in Thailand would be most approriate for a family interested in nature, local culture, budget of 1000 THB/night and wishing to avoid "night life" ?
Where should I travel to see an Australian Rules Football game?

I'm assuming there would be some criteria for specificity, and the above could be expanded into something specific enough (probably not as-is).

(This meta question about recommendations is related, but different).

This one seems like it might have lots of answers as "North East USA" is a big place travel.stackexchange.com/questions/4417/… — WW., Jan 13, 2012 at 11:26

Yes they are on-topic as long as they are not subjective or open-ended etc. Use the destinations tag on such questions.

Definitely make sure they're not subjective. The 'Which ski resort is best' IS subjective. Try to avoid that.
