Major Short Breaks Survey Reveals New Trends

Belfast East, Northern Ireland (12 August 2010)ActivityBreaks, the largest online activity holiday and short break specialists, carried out a survey of 2,000 people to discover the secrets to a perfect European short break. As European leaders in the Activity Holidays market, the company believes this will strengthen even further its position in this growing market segment. 

Some of the main findings include:

“Using our long experience and the results of this survey, the idea is to create unique value-for-money packages that bring together all these aspects” comments Managing Director Alex Reed. “This has meant searching the continent for the right ingredients and, in some cases, opening up new channels in emerging countries such as Poland.”

The other key factor in the survey was price issues which, surprisingly, focused not on low price but on offering the best price for that particular package – for that package to offer true value for money. Indeed the growth of the more expensive ski and spa packages has been proof of this concept with some basic low cost ski packages being easily outsold by the more expensive packages.

The market for Weekend breaks and short breaks of less than four nights grew a surprising 6.4% in the first semester of 2010 and looks set to be of growing importance.
