Domestic holidays on the increase?

30/04/2010
VisitBritain believes that since the volcanic eruption, Brits will change their holiday plans for the Summer and opt for ‘staycations’ instead of taking holidays by air. People are becoming cautious when it comes to booking overseas trips mainly due to the flight chaos that the volcano caused.

Inbound visitors on UK holidays spent approx. £16.5 billion in the UK last year. VisitBritain say that approx. 85,000 inbound visitors a day arrive in the UK at this time of year. In 2009, there was almost 22 million who fly into the UK by plane. Fortunately during the Volcanic Ash crisis, both the ferry ports and Channel Tunnel were operating normally so stranded holidaymakers could get back to the UK by other means of transport – some opting for coaches too!

With the volcanic ash cloud and the chaos that followed, it is thought that more people will consider hassle-free UK coach holidays compared to European Coach Holidays or Worldwide escorted coach tours for their annual summer vacation this year. The UK has plenty to offer on UK coach holidays such as the stunning countryside to be found in The Lake District, Yorkshire and Eastbourne. You’ll also find amazing coastlines on coach breaks to Cornwall, Scotland and Northern Ireland as well as city breaks by coach to vibrant cities such as London, Brighton, Liverpool and much more.

UK coach holidays offer great-value for money and are much kinder to the environment than air travel so maybe you should reconsider your holiday plans this year? From only £89 per person you can enjoy fabulous London Theatre Breaks to see some top West End shows such as Dirty Dancing by coach, Mamma Mia by coach, Love Never Dies by coach or The Jersey Boys by coach. Maybe take the whole family to visit Longleat Safari Park and enjoy all the attractions that this famous park has to offer from only £99 per person – Children save 10% off the adult price!

Hop on UK coach holidays to discover more to the Isle of Wight or maybe spend the summertime in London. Explore the heart of Wales on coach holidays from only £225 per person or relax in the beautiful Victorian resort of Llandudno from only £150 per person. Hop on Scotland coach holidays and admire the beautiful scenery on a Scenic Scotland Supersaver from only £99.95 per person or maybe join city breaks to Edinburgh from only £159.95 per person - if you want to get away from it all for a few days and experience the Edinburgh Military Tattoo.
