Spain, Portugal firm favourites

A1 TRAVEL reports that British holidaymakers are turning back to their traditional favourites, and are deciding to stay close to home. All of the #destinations in its list of top five resort regions are in Western Europe. Spanish holiday areas claim four places on the list, with Portugal getting one. 

#Majorca claimed the number one spot. In second place is the Costa Blanca, which includes destinations such as Benidorm. Third on the list is Tenerife, the Algarve, Portugal, is fourth, and the Costa del Sol is fifth.

Many in the industry believe that unrest in popular holiday destinations such as Tunisia, Egypt, and Turkey is the main reason behind the trend.
