British 'summer' leads to rise in Greece bookings

Tuesday, 17 July 20123 min read

Olympic Holidays claims the British weather has helped boost sales to the Greek Islands despite previous bad press about Greece leaving the Euro.

"The diabolical weather has really helped holiday sales in the last 10 days," said commercial director Photis Lambrianides.

"Media coverage for Greece has been much more positive and there’s no more talk about Greece exiting the Euro, which has restored travellers’ confidence. Prices remain very competitive, especially for packages to the larger islands like Rhodes and Crete, or to Cyprus, but August is already selling well."
