More set to holiday in the UK
It is hardly surprising, as the pound slides closer to parity with the
Euro and who knows may be worth less than a Euro come the New Year,
that travel agents are reporting an increase in domestic holiday
bookings.
It has been predicted that the number of families choosing to take
their annual summer break in Britain next year could increase by at
least a million with some operators already reporting a 15% increase in
bookings over 2008. This comes on top of the recent Times survey that
indicated that a third of people polled said that they were switching
plans from a holiday abroad to a holiday in Britain.
