One in four Brits will cut down on holidays in 2019 due to Brexit

Wednesday, 31 Dec, 2018 0

One in four Brits will cut down on holidays in 2019 because of Brexit and more than a third won’t be travelling abroad all year.

These were the findings of a survey of more than 2,000 people across the country by discount website VoucherCodes.

Over half (56%) think holidays will now be more expensive as a result of Brexit and 47% believe Brexit will make trips abroad more difficult.

But despite this 37% aspire to go on more holidays in 2019, with 40% planning to go on multiple trips around the UK and 34% expecting to travel abroad more than once over the course of the year.

The research revealed differences between millennials and Generation X (those over 45 years old).

While 48% of millennials plan on having more than one international holiday next year, 43% of Generation X will not leave the country.
