24/11/2020

Following Pfizer, Moderna, and BioNTech's official announcement that their vaccines achieved over 90% efficacy in clinical trials, the number of searches for next year's holiday in the UK immediately surged to record levels.

According to Skyscanner, specifically, the number of travel searches in the UK increased by 48% in the week following the vaccine announcements. The most sought-after trips were primarily between early April and August 2021. Of these, 80% of travelers were interested in longer international trips. This suggests that travelers are enthusiastic and optimistic that the pandemic will be completely under control within the next year.
