Travel Companies Report Sales Up Despite Brexit Vote

Travel Companies Report Sales Up Despite Brexit Vote

Published : 27-Sep-2016 08:53



Specialist ski tour operator, Ski Solutions has become the latest to report business up overall despite the Brexit vote.

They join other companies to make the same claim to varying degrees including tour operators Club Med and Ski Independence and transfer company Ski-Lifts.

Ski Solutions report that have seen growth of a quarter in advanced bookings year on year.

"The message from us is so far so good," said the company's Managing Director, Craig Burton, adding, "Despite the predicted doom and gloom, our advanced bookings to Europe and North America are materially ahead of where they were this time last year, with departures for this winter up by 25%"

"We believe that our core skiers will always find a way to ski, despite the political or economic climate. The increase in demand this year for secondary ski short breaks, is a perfect example of this. In fact, we have expanded our weekend ski programme again this year to meet this demand as clients book multiple ski breaks to make the most of the season."

Commenting on current booking trends, Burton added, "Half Term is now very heavily sold. Additionally, with some great offers available we are seeing stronger demand coming through for Christmas and New Year departures. There are a variety of departure dates, and durations available over the festive period."
