The company’s Autumn Travel Index revealed more than two-thirds of Brits will holiday next season despite ongoing inflation and rising fuel costs.

The study – which is based on a combination of Tripadvisor’s first party search and proprietary consumer sentiment data – found 68% of UK respondents are planning an autumn break this year.
 
While the index shows spiralling costs won’t put Brits off travelling this upcoming season, three out of five (60%) said inflation will impact the way in which they travel.
