Greece chose to delay requiring travellers from Britain, one of its top source markets, to complete the new EU Entry-Exit System (EES) checks, while Turkey sits outside the European bloc, meaning travellers there don't have to clear EES.
Julia Lo Bue-Said, Advantage Travel Partnership Chief Executive, said: “Greece tops the charts as the highest growing summer holiday destination, in part thanks to the delayed rollout of the EES scheme, while Turkey has seen a last-minute rise in bookings by travellers seeking fantastic value for money and beautiful destinations.
