ALLCLEAR RESEARCH INDICATES CITY BREAKS ARE ON THE UP - AS RECORD NUMBER OF BRITS ESCAPE ENGLISH SUMMER FOR SOME GUARANTEED SUNSHINE
Compared to the previous two summers, the popularity of beach holidays (45%), and a chill-out hotel pool holiday (30%) continued to top the list of holidays for summer 2024, with cruise holidays remaining a popular choice among the over 55s (11%). Beyond this, there were a number of year-on-year increases:
The AllClear data also suggests that there has also been a big rise in the percentage of people with medical conditions that want a holiday abroad this summer (73%). This represents a big rise from 61% in June 2023 and 58% for summer 2022.
"After such a challenging time for the sector – enduring a global pandemic and then into a cost-of-living crisis – it is welcome news to see such a bounce-back for the travel industry. This underscores the need for holidaymakers to get the best possible cover. In recent years, we have noted a growing trend among older holiday makers – and those with medical conditions – to economise on their travel cover in order to get a cheaper policy. We encourage everyone to get the best possible cover, to ensure no one is inadvertently putting themselves at risk when abroad this summer."
