Enquiries from UK travellers for international holidays in the key summer months of July and August have picked up, according to data from comparison site TravelSupermarket.

Steve Heapy said the destinations should be placed on the list “as a minimum” when the next traffic light review takes place

This is the first time in four weeks that the summer months have been more popular than autumn, with October being the top departure month for the previous four weeks.

TravelSupermarket’s Emma Coulthurst said: “As the vaccination rollout and the latest lockdown easing continues to be heralded a success, in the last week there has been increased interest in summer 2021 overseas getaways.”

“Brits are also starting to search for holidays to the US, no doubt buoyed by the country’s successful vaccine roll out.”
