Results showed that the UK is the most popular 2023 holiday destination, followed by Spain, one of the shortest flights for British holidaymakers. Greece then takes third place.
Over the last year, staycations have been as popular as they were amid the time of covid restrictions which minimised overseas travel. However, even since restrictions have significantly eased, British holidaymakers are choosing to remain on home turf this year with searches for value for money and affordable breaks rising.
