UK holidays have become a fail-safe way for Britons to enjoy a getaway this year without having to navigate the often confusing restrictions in place for international travel. However, some holiday hopefuls have reported eye-watering quotes for summer staycations to popular destinations across the country.
Book on a Sunday
Surprisingly, the experts claim that booking on a specific day of the week could see travellers reaping the financial rewards.
Hotel and accommodation prices can vary a lot depending on the day and week of the year that you choose to book on, given that some times are more popular for bookings than others.
Holidaymakers should consider booking on a Sunday, with Uswitch claiming prices can be up to 30 percent cheaper at the end of the week than on a Friday.
Avoid peak travel times
Peak travel times are usually in the height of summer or during school holidays.
While it is difficult for parents to avoid these times, those who are able to be flexible with their travel dates should be.
The Uswitch experts explain: “You can make big savings by booking your holiday out of season.”
Those who are still seeking summer sunshine are advised to book just outside of the school holidays when prices could be dramatically reduced.
Check for additional charges
Additional charges can often appear on a bill seemingly from nowhere and catch holidaymakers out.
This is particularly true for those booking via a third party website, who are known to add on admin fees or service charges.
The experts warn: “Check the website for extra fees before making payments for your accommodation or excursions.”
