Many tour and travel operators are reporting significant increases in late demand for holidays in Turkey. Despite the recession, the thinking seems to be one of 'Well, we're in a recession, so what, I'm still going to go on holiday'. Whilst there are many staying at home, there are more wanting to go abroad and Turkey is top of the list. The holiday market is proving surprisingly buoyant as people see their holiday as a right rather than a luxury.A number of travel agents are reporting Turkey as their most popular destination, being outside the eurozone and so offering excellent value for money. Thomas Cook report bookings to Turkey up 28%. Thomson and First Choice also say they have seen massive increased interest in the country. The site, youtravel, reported Turkey as one of only four countries to witness double digit tourism growth in May, with Bodrum showing an 11% increase. As people leave it later to book their holiday in search of cheap offers, last minute bookings are now accounting for 20% of the market.
