All markets are outperforming full year 2019 figures with corporate travel up by 20% versus pre pandemic sales figures.

For winter 2022/23, UK leisure destinations are proving popular, seeing their biggest booking volume yet, followed by trips to North America, cruise holidays, Spain and the Caribbean.

Steve Byrne, CEO of Travel Counsellors, said: “This is a record-breaking year for our Travel Counsellors, and as a result, we are seeing our largest number of new bookings ever.”

This year the company has welcomed 140 new Travel Counsellors, with over 1,300 now operating across the UK and a further 400 plus in its overseas operations.
