Tenerife is 'Top Holiday Spot This Summer'

Tenerife is the top destination that Brits are jetting off to this summer, new research has revealed.

Cheapflights.co.uk analysed searches on its website for holidays between May 1st to June 30th 2008 and the Spanish island came top, reports Travel Weekly.

It was followed by sun-soaked Orlando, Florida, which thanks to the weak position of the dollar against the pound was 60 per cent more popular this year compared to the same period in 2007.

Other places popular with Brits included euro zones such as Alicante and Malaga, while further afield the charms of Bangkok and Dubai are still luring in holidaymakers.

The only Greek entry was Paphos (which came seventh) and fellow European destinations the Algarve and Turkey also slipped into the bottom half of the top ten.


In related news, those looking to cut costs in light of the recent credit crunch were advised this week that taking a caravan holiday might not only save them money but also reduce their carbon footprint.
