On the Beach saw an increase in sales in the second half of 2022 compared to the same time in 2019, despite the "indirect consequences" of the war in Ukraine and "ongoing disruption" across the travel supply chain.

On the Beach also reported "good progress" in B2B and long-haul

It comes as the OTA posts its 2022 financial year (FY22) trading update for the 12 months to 30 September.

In the second half of the financial year, group sales were 25% ahead of the same time in 2019 (FY19) and over the full year, sales were 16% ahead of pre-pandemic levels.

The company said all booked sales over the period relate to new bookings, opposed to other operators being "flattered" by the proportion of their new bookings having been rolled over from previous periods or booked using refund credit notes (RCNs).
