Jetabroad: Aussies Love Going to the UK on Holiday
SYDNEY, March 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ –
-Jetabroad say that there was a substantial increase in the number of
Australians heading to the United Kingdom last year-
Australia’s leading online travel company, Jetabroad, have highlighted a significant
increase in the number of Aussies who caught cheap England flights
[http://www.jetabroad.com.au/Cheap-Flights/London-LON ] in 2011 compared with 2010. Taking
advantage of the exchange rate, many Australians found that their dollar stretched further
than ever before in the UK. This year Britain looks set to be similarly popular with
Australians, as a number of national and international events take place across the
British Isles.
This revelation comes as VisitBritain announce figures confirming that Britain had
seen an estimated nine per cent increase in the number of Australians visiting the country
in December alone compared with 2010 figures. The months of April to June were
particularly popular with a 19 per cent increase in the number of Australians arriving in
the country. The first three quarters of 2011 saw Australian visitor numbers increase by
over 10 per cent every quarter.
Jetabroad say that many Australians are expected to follow the trend in 2012, as
events in Britain like the Diamond Jubilee and major sporting events are likely to make
the United Kingdom, and London in particular, even more popular with international
travellers arriving on cheap flights [http://www.jetabroad.com.au ].
Darin Walters, MD of Jetabroad [http://www.jetabroad.com.au ], comments: “Britain has
long been a favoured destination with Australians travelling abroad, and this year is
going to be no different, with Aussies looking to take advantage of the many events taking
place in the country [http://www.visitbritain.com/en/Things-to-do ] and the great exchange
rate.”
