Travel Counsellors enjoyed a "record-breaking week" last week (week beginning 17 January), taking as many bookings as it did during the whole of January 2021.

The homeworking giant said sales ran to nearly 90% of 2019 levels last week, making it the best week for new leisure bookings since the start of the pandemic.

The uptick, said Travel Counsellors, was spurred on by the UK government’s move to scrap Day 2 tests for fully vaccinated arrivals into the UK.
 
Travel Counsellors also saw several "high-value" single travel bookings to destinations in the Indian Ocean, Caribbean and South Africa.
