They also revealed that bookings for this bank holiday weekend are up by 19 per cent compared with last year, which was reported as a record-breaker.
Leigh-Ann continued: “It comes as no surprise that travel favourites Tenerife, Alicante and Palma top the list but we’ve noticed that destinations such as Canada and Cancun have also been popular for this period which suggests that people have used the bank holiday to kickstart a longer break.
