More than a quarter of British holidaymakers won’t travel without their teabags.

Contradicting the image of tech-obsessed travellers, 26.5% of Brits can’t leave home without their teabags while 24% take their slippers with them on holiday.

And the number one thing holidaymakers want to get away from is the British weather, while 6% want to escape their neighbour and 5% their partner, according to research by Norwegian Cruise Line.

The survey – sent to over 2,000 respondents across the UK – also found one in five passengers have a holiday quirk like avoiding the number 13 in their seat number, hotel room or floor number, and wearing the same ‘going away’ outfit every time.

Francis Riley, Norwegian’s vice president and general manager, international, said "British holidaymakers appreciate being able to explore new experiences on holidays, however like to have their home comforts and traditions with them as well."
