Many Britons are to travel overseas to carry out some of their Christmas shopping, according to experts.
The Association of British Travel Agents (ABTA) stated that each November, there was a surge of bookings for foreign holidays, largely from people hoping to buy presents for the festive season.
Sean Tipton, spokesperson for the organisation, said that Christmas markets were especially popular destinations, as they offered a taste of local culture and a different way of shopping.
He commented: “Christmas markets are getting more and more popular, partly for the Christmas experience as much as what people buy when they get there.”
ABTA recently said that sunny destinations such as Spain were also highly popular getaways during the festive season, along with skiing resorts in Italy.
This could mean that flats & homes investors in rental property could benefit from increased occupancy towards the end of the year.
Cheers buddies!
