The homeworking specialist said last week that the industry had “currently stalled”, with 70% of families still to book.
However, co-founder Steve Witt told TTG on Tuesday (6 May) part of the issue was that many of the 720 NJT consultants were themselves on holiday in April.
He said: “It was slumped. Normally during school and Easter holidays our travel consultants are off, so it was not the market that was slumped, it was more a case of right now it’s quieter and now we are expecting a busy last minute peak period. There was a pent-up market for the consumer but our travel consultants were away.”
