You’d have thought that with the current economic climate and everyone pulling tighter on their purse-strings than ever before, price would be the most important factor when booking a holiday but it would appear that this isn’t so.
Recent research has shown that financial protection, ABTA and ATOL membership mean much more to a holidaymaker than simply the price. Apparently these factors take the top three spots of a survey carried out by ABTA with lowest prices featuring at the bottom of the Top Ten and safe & secure accommodation at the top spot as voted by 86% of holidaymakers interviewed.
Here is the full list of factors holidaymakers consider when choosing their holiday:
1) Safe and secure accommodation 86%
2) A financial protection scheme 79%
3) ATOL Financial Protection 74%
4) ABTA membership 73%
5) Knowledgeable staff 67%
6) Ease of transport connections 63%
7) Range of holidays on offer 58%
8) Convenient location 55%
9) A well-known name in travel 55%
10) Lowest prices 53%
You don’t have to look very far if you want a holiday company that has the appropriate financial protection because all of the coach tour operators featured on Door2Tour.com have the appropriate bonding or are members of ABTA and ATOL so your money is protected should anything bad happen!
