Bargain Hunting Brits Snap Up Flights to Greece

CheapOair

CheapOair.co.uk (www.cheapoair.co.uk) has seen a staggering jump in UK holiday bargain hunters booking flights to Greece. Bookings from London to Rhodes and Corfu have seen the biggest surge with year-on-year increases of 567 per cent and 270 per cent respectively (based on bookings made between January and July this year when compared with 2014). 

Searches for flights so far this year from London to Crete have also seen a staggering rise on bookings during the same period in 2014 (an increase of 293 per cent). The iconic blue roofs of Santorini are proving a pull too with bookings for flights from London showing an increase of 200 per cent year-on-year.

CheapOair.co.uk has seen searches for flights into Athens skyrocket this year with an increase of more than 577 per cent compared with 2014. The site's bookings to the Greek capital from London for this year are up 255 per cent on bookings made in the same time period in 2014.

Peter Grover, CheapOair.co.uk, comments:

“Both mainland Greece and the idyllic surrounding islands are continuing to show incredibly strong booking figures for us this summer. The hard work of the Greek tourist board to continue to attract holidaymakers, despite a financial crisis, and the support of airlines and tour operators in decreasing prices to the Mediterranean destination have combined to cause a mega-surge in bookings through CheapOair.co.uk.”
