Travel industry experts have warned that the number of flights throughout Europe is likely to drop in the next 3 months by around 5%. Previous calculations had placed the drop at more like 2.5%, this figure has been revised now that more flight schedules have been published.
Globally, the fall-off had been predicted at about 7%, but new figures now indicate an improvement of a percentage point on that figure meaning that overall there will be something like 450,000 fewer flights in the final quarter of 2008 - that should please environmentalists at least...
The warnings to those expecting late deals are clear - book now because the late deals could well not be available. Forward booking for 2009 has meant that much of he capacity has alreaby been allocated, most being in the popular school holiday months.
