With so many bank holidays in April and the beginning of May, we’re turning into a nation of holidaymakers.
By tagging on three or four extra days’ holiday an employee can manage to get away for an eleven day break – what a great way to get another holiday this year!
It appears that lots of us are taking advantage of the late Easter and glut of bank holidays to get away. Thomson Holidays and Thomas Cook have reported a 35% increase in April bookings, while Ryanair has seen flight sales increase by 65% this April compared to April 2010.
Top destinations for this April are Majorca, Tenerife, Costa Blanca, Costa Del Sol and the Algarve with Portugal reporting a whopping 90% increase in UK holidaymakers and Malta a 22% rise.
Who can blame us for jetting away for some welcome sunshine rather than staying at home to watch the Royal wedding on television?
Don’t worry all you Royal wedding fans out there, you won’t be alone, British Airways has announced it is flying more than 250,000 people in to London this week ahead of the Royal Wedding celebrations.
