Domestic tourism can continue to sparkle if it depends on guests; almost every second respondent is planning a multi-day trip in the autumn, according to a recent survey by Szallas.hu. Autumn holidays are also planned if you need to take time off. There are 16.5 percent more active bookings for the September-November period than at the same time last year. Gyula, Hajdúszoboszló and Zalakaros are the most popular destinations in the coming months.
The urge to travel also persists: almost half of the respondents go on holiday in the autumn and 43 percent of them plan a holiday. There are 16.5 percent more active bookings in the Szallas.hu system for the September-November period than last year. Bookings in September are 21 percent and those in October are 14 percent higher than the previous year, but are currently 22 percent lower than in November compared to 2019. "We don't dare to plan very ahead, we prefer to book closer dates now, and last-minute trips are also common, " said Lili Kelemen, spokesperson for Szallas.hu. The most sought-after destinations are the deservedly famous spa towns, such as Gyula, Hajdúszoboszló, Zalakaros, Eger and Hévíz. Siófok, Egerszalók, Visegrád, Nyíregyháza and Miskolctapolca are also popular settlements among the guests. "In addition to visiting the spas, the weather and the gradient nature are favorable for hikers and hikers, but it is also a popular pastime to visit the sights of the area," said Kelemen Lili. In the following months, the average booking value is HUF 65,000.
Autumn travel is also popular with those who have already vacationed and also with those who have not vacationed for some reason. According to Szallas.hu, the majority of bookings (43%) are for two nights, every fifth for 3, and 18% for one night. Apartments (27%), guest houses (19%), bed and breakfasts (17%) and 3-star hotels (17%) are the most sought-after types of accommodation. “After a lot of uncertainty, long-term work at home and closeness, the change in the environment and recreation is especially good, because with these we can recharge ,” the spokesman said. " Three-quarters of those surveyed return more energetically after a trip."
It is strongly divided on how much paid leave is left this year. Although 44 percent of respondents did not have to take leave at the request of an employer due to a coronavirus epidemic, about one in ten people had to take 6-10 days and 8 percent had 1-5 days. At the same time, it is a misconception that people have no freedom left: although the Szallas.hu survey is not representative, 27 percent of respondents still have 6-10, 17 percent 11-15 paid leave, and every tenth can manage 16 or more days. The proportion of those who have to take 1-5 days off for the rest of this year is the same as the latter. "We support autumn domestic travel with a special offer, which allows guests to book up to 20 percent cheaper and without a cancellation fee," said the Autumn Mini Szabi campaign, which runs until September 8, adding that a lucky person could win back their booking in addition to discounts. value.
