Credit Crunch

The impact of the credit crunch on UK holidays next year is unclear. There are factors suggesting that it will increase as overseas holidays become relatively more expensive (worsening pound, increasing flight costs) but there is always the risk that people will cancel holiday plans entirely.

This Telegraph article suggests they will become more popular, though suggests there may also be a further shift to shorter breaks, a trend that has been very apparent over the last couple of years.

I'm not convinced that people will cancel their holidays all together. I for one couldn't go a year without a break of any sort, and the UK is as good a place to holiday as anywhere. We've got friends with a UK holiday home advertised holidaylettings.co.uk and they say it seems they're getting more enquiries. Guess we just wait and see.
