More than one-in-three are
planning a getaway in the next three months, according to the research from
Tesco Travel Money, rising to 42 per cent among 18-24 year olds.
Younger travellers still spend
less on their breaks, with an average cost of £1,062 compared to an overall
average of £1,527 per person. For older holidaymakers prices were even higher,
with 55-64 year-olds spending as much as £1,718 on average.
And traditional types of
getaway have retained their popularity. Just over a tenth of Brits were
planning a short European city break, but after a miserable winter it might not
be surprising that four out of ten were planning hot and sunny beach holidays.
