‘Cyprus bookings up 840%’ – UK travel agency
March 11, 2021
“I just can’t wait to be back on the beach!” The words of Jo Pink, 48, who has already received both doses of her Covid-19 vaccination. Hopeful that the UK will lift travel restrictions on the 17th of May, she has booked an all-inclusive June getaway to Cyprus. She is not alone.
Cyprus’ recent announcement that vaccinated UK travellers would be able to enjoy restriction free travel to Cyprus from May 1 has further fuelled a travel industry recovery sparked by Boris Johnson’s announcement of an exit roadmap from lockdown. EasyJet acknowledged an evident ‘pent up demand’ with bookings soaring in wake of the announcement, while Loveholidays.co.uk, an all-inclusive travel provider told the Cyprus Mail that bookings to Cyprus were up 840 per cent in just the last week.
