Ash disruption “not clouding future flying plansâ€
The study found that 12% of respondents are now more interested in a UK holiday, with 64% no more or less interest in changing their travel preferences than before the volcanic disruption.
Additionally, 7.5% are more interested in a continental driving holiday by ferry or Channel Tunnel.
The poll found that 65% of respondents think it is the travel providers’ responsibility to compensate passengers.
A total of 42% think passengers should receive compensation for flights, accommodation and reasonable daily expenses – exactly the same whether they were affected or unaffected
Travelzoo UK managing director Joel Brandon-Bravo said: “We were pleased to find that over half of respondents believe the reaction of the British travel industry was good given the exceptional circumstances and 84% won’t change their plans to fly in the near future.
