Holidaymakers are expected to spend more than £800 on an Easter break after two years of tough Covid restrictions. Research by Very reveals the average person will splash out £818 on their holiday, with nearly a third planning to spend in excess of £1,000.
The study, which is based on polling and internal data, finds 12 per cent are taking an Easter break abroad and a further quarter will opt for a staycation. Nearly half those polled (47 per cent) are planning to stay at home and 16 per cent remain undecided on what they will do.
Data from online shopping outlet Very covering the last two weeks of February and the first two weeks of March, shows interest has grown substantially in holiday staples such as luggage, swimwear and beach towels. All have experienced +100 per cent growth compared to the same time last year when the country was in lockdown.
