A spokesman for Jet2holidays, which commissioned the research, said: “Brits are looking for the best value getaways, and knowing everything is taken care of for them is the icing on the cake.

“Package holidays offer more peace-of-mind for holidaymakers who might still be feeling uncertain after the pandemic, and they provide value and assurance to those feeling the pinch in today’s economy.

“We are right in the middle of the peak booking season for holidays, and that desire for trust rings very true.”

The study also found the current economic climate plays a part in the surge in popularity – with 82 percent revealing this has directly led to them considering a package break.

Similarly, a further 28 percent appreciate the transparency of package holidays, and are glad they don’t have to worry about surprise hidden fees.

The spokesman for Jet2holidays added: “People very much have an appetite for their well-deserved holidays, particularly after events of the last few years, and despite the fact the purse strings may have tightened in recent months.

“Understandably, Brits are after a trip away that doesn’t break the bank – and a package holiday puts them in control of so many elements, including the budget.”
