The number of overseas holidays taken by UK residents could be 7% lower next year if there is a no-deal Brexit, according to a new report.

The European Commission has formally recommended refund credit notes

The latest quarterly report by the European Travel Commission (ETC) has found that outbound UK travel would be affected by both “economic and non-economic factors” if the current deal with the EU fails to be approved by the new UK parliament after 12 December’s general election.

ETC added that the impact of a no-deal Brexit would continue in 2021 with overseas trips by UK residents expected to be 8% lower than previously forecast.
