First Choice reports dip in short-haul demand

Tour operator First Choice today indicated that consumers were losing interest in traditional winter breaks after sales of its short-haul holidays fell. Bookings for mainstream short-haul holidays to destinations such as the Canary Islands, Egypt or Morocco this winter were 13% lower than a year ago and customer numbers were down by a fifth. British-based First Choice has seen its traditional market eroded over the past three years by the growth of budget airlines such as Ryanair and easyJet.
