Top 10 travel experiences holidaymakers want to have: More than half of travellers are saving all their spare cash for the next adventure – and already have more than £2,500 in their ‘holiday account’.
A survey of 2,000 UK holidaymakers revealed six in 10 regarded ‘getting away’ as their passion with holidaymakers saving all spare cash for the next big trip away.
As a result, more than half (52 per cent) have saved up more for their next holiday. It also emerged that the pandemic has encouraged people to live life to the full, with a third of respondents creating a bucket list of travel experiences they want to tick off.
And they have completed an average of five of the locations so far.
A trip to the Northern Lights was the most wanted travel experience, followed travelling on the Orient Express and driving Route 66 in the USA.
The study also found that to look after their health when travelling abroad, 55 per cent wanted the introduction of vaccination passports.
The research was carried out by Eurofins, which offers PCR testing across 150 sites in the UK, for people wanting to go abroad.
Almost half (48 per cent) want more space on flights, while 47 per cent want good ventilation in airports.
A similar figure (45 per cent) want masks to be worn at all times when inside an airport, while 41 per cent want passengers to take PCR tests before going away.
With more than a third of respondents having a trip abroad cancelled due to the pandemic, it is no surprise to see so many are looking forward to their next holiday.
