It seems that British holidaymakers are increasingly keen on heading to Cancun in Mexico, Phuket in Thailand and Jamaica, despite the current financial situation.
A new study has revealed that such long-haul holidays are showing signs of increased popularity as Brits attempt to make up for adisappointing summer at home with a bit of winter sun.
The popularity of these particular beach holidays is helped by the fact that they are outside the Eurozone as well, meaning travellers’ pounds tend to go further.
The South African rand also gives good value right now, so many people are also heading to Cape Town – a trend that is sure to continue with the football World Cup being held there next year.
