The late booking trend that characterised trading during the pandemic looks set to continue into the winter season, according to Travel Republic, with customers also seeking the security of booking all-inclusive amid ongoing cost of living pressures.
Almost a third (32%) of Travel Republic’s bookings in the past week have been for the upcoming half-term break, with nearly 40% of these trips being booked on an all-inclusive basis – up 10% on the same period in 2019.
Travel Republic said nearly half of families (46%) travelling during half-term would do so all-inclusive as opposed to 38% of couples, proof – the OTA said – "that Brits are looking for the security of knowing how much their total holiday costs will be before they leave home".
